    Abstract:
    Injury is the leading cause of death in children in the United States, and it is a leading reason for children to need emergent medical attention. The care of injured and ill children can best be coordinated through a comprehensive system of Emergency Medical Services for Children (EMS-C). This article reviews childhood injury epidemiology, details the history and components of EMS-C systems, and discusses areas for improvement of and individual involvement in EMS-C.
