Division of Pediatric Emergency and Transport Services
We provide both tertiary- and quaternary-level emergency services to the
pediatric population of Tokyo and its environs. We also offer primaryand
secondary-level services to our local population. Approximately 30,000
children require emergency care each year, with almost 3,000 of those children
admitted from the Emergency Department to inpatient care.
We deal with a wide spectrum of illnesses and traumas, and our division is involved in various activities relevant to pediatric emergency medicine. We offer a special fellowship training program in emergency medicine, and carry out clinical research in various areas to improve practices in pediatric emergency medicine.
