Research & Innovation | Overview

Boston Children's is actively involved in conducting research into the causes and best treatments for childhood injury. Currently, we are:

  • Examining how best to care for children with a ruptured spleen
  • Collaborating with other hospitals to determine the long-term problems children face after suffering a broken pelvis
  • Identifying children and families who are at risk for developing emotional problems or post-traumatic stress syndrome (PTSS) after injury
  • Identifying which blood tests and X-rays are necessary during emergency care to ensure patient safety and maximize emergency department efficiency
