Purpose: To analyze the characteristics of pediatric trauma patients transferred from other facilities, with the goal of utilizing these findings as foundational data to improve the emergency medical system for these patients. Methods: This study targeted pediatric trauma patients aged < 15 years who visited emergency medical centers in Seoul over the course of one year in 2021, totaling 48,189 individuals. Data were obtained from the National Emergency Department Information System (NEDIS). This study analyzed the characteristics of patients transferred to regional and local emergency medical centers. The collected data were analyzed using IBM SPSS Statistics 26, with the significance level set at a χ value of 0.001. Results: Among the pediatric trauma patients, 6.5% (3,129) were transferred from other hospitals, while mild cases accounted for 85.9% (41,397). However, we noticed a tendency for more severe cases to be transferred. Among the transferred patients, 35.9% (1,123) were diagnosed with fractures, and 33.0% (1,033) had skin injuries. Notably, the proportion of patients with KTAS levels 4-5 was 71.3% (2,232). Conclusion: When designating Moonlight Children's hospital, it is essential to support hospitals capable of treating nonemergency trauma. Additionally, caregivers need education in selecting appropriate initial medical facilities through inquiries to 119 emergency dispatch centers.

소개
복합 구조적인 산업사회의 발전에 따라 안전사고와 응급상황에서의 구조구급요청자들이 증가하고 있으나 우리나라의 응급의료체계는 아직 그 수준을 따라가지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 이에 우리나라의 응급의료체계를 확립하고 구조구급에 관한 기초학문의 발전에 기여하고자 학회를 창립한다.
