Scientific Sessions/Tracks
Track 1: General Pediatrics
Pediatrics is the area of medicine that deals with the medical treatment of unborn children, children, and teenagers. A pediatrician is a specialist who deals with all elements of a child's health—physical, mental, and otherwise—during every stage of development. The goal of pediatric research is to lower the mortality rate for infants and young children, stop the spread of disease, promote a variety of healthy lifestyles for a long life free of infection, and diminish problems in children and adolescents.

Track 2: Pediatric Nutrition and Obesity
A child's ability to develop, learn, and prosper is significantly impacted by nutrition during the first 1,000 days of life. Diet throughout pregnancy and the first few years of a child's life provides the fundamental building blocks for healthy brain development, growth, and the formation of a robust immune system. The most crucial time to ensure adequate nutrition is when a child is developing between infancy and puberty. Children who follow healthy eating habits will benefit from improved growth and development as well as immune system support and the formation of ingrained, lifelong food habits. It is crucial to always provide your child with healthy choices from all the major nutrition items, even if nutritional demands, wants, and tastes will vary greatly among children. The essential components of breast milk include fats, minerals, lactose, and proteins.

Track 3: Neonatology
Pediatricians that specialize in neonatology provide medical attention to newborns, especially unwell or premature infants. Neonatal intensive care units typically practice this hospital-based specialty. Specialists in medicine known as neonatologists have trained specifically to handle the most difficult and dangerous illnesses. Neonatologists treat newborns who are premature or have major illnesses, injuries, absconding from the womb at birth, intrauterine growth restriction, low birth weight, sepsis, pulmonary hypoplasia, or birth asphyxia.

Track 4: Child Abuse and Neglect
Specialists in particular social services, wellbeing, psychological wellbeing, and the legal system have noted that child safety is a matter of most significance. More than only wounds and broken bones result from child abuse. When compared to other forms of abuse, such as emotional abuse and neglect, physical violence may be more obvious and may leave more profound, long-lasting scars. The more support previously abused children receive, the more chance they have of finding a solution and ending the cycle rather than feeding it. We can have a huge impact on a child's life by learning about general signs of abuse and what we could do to intervene.

Track 5: Pediatric Nursing
The therapeutic care of newborns, babies, and children from infancy through early adulthood is provided by pediatric nurses, typically in an inpatient hospital or day clinic. The main responsibility of pediatric nurses is to control the administration of medications and guide methods to newborns as specified in nursing care plans. Pediatric nurses are counted on to respond quickly in tense situations and handle stress well. Neonatal nursing is a subset of human services that focuses on supporting newborns who were born prematurely or who were afflicted with diseases, birth defects, or cardiac conditions. The Neonatal Intensive Treatment Unit (NICU) employs many neonatal nurses who provide extremely precise medical care to newborns who are at risk.

Track 6: Pediatric Psychology
Pediatric psychology has a specialization in treating behavioral and developmental issues in newborns. The children who are seen regularly have complicated medical, developmental, and emotional/behavioral aspects that call for thorough evaluations. Many kids either have poor verbal communication skills or none. Other children present behavioral or other difficulties, such as physical ones, that have complicated earlier attempts to evaluate the child's problems related to developmental disabilities and long-term medical concerns. Child psychologists are experts in the factors that shape children's behavior. They perform both diagnosis and treatment of a wide variety of psychiatric problems.

Track 8: Pediatric Critical care and Emergency medicine.
Emergency departments frequently get head traumas in children. Which children have significant intracranial wounds that require intervention will be the subject of the provider's trial. A child can develop sepsis if their body reacts excessively to an illness. One of the most tough and severe infections in medicine is sepsis. To avoid an excessive rise in patient sickness and mortality, thorough analysis and the start of treatment are necessary.
Through both individual and group exercises, high-fidelity simulation is emerging as a useful tool for teaching in pediatric emergency medicine and critical care.

Track 11: Pediatric Oncology
The specialty of medicine needed for the detection and management of cancer in children is known as pediatric oncology. In the medical specialty of pediatric oncology, tumors in children, often up to the age of 18, are diagnosed and treated. It is one of the most challenging responsibilities since, despite the lucky treatment of many children, there is still a significant death rate associated with various forms of cancers. The stage and kind of the cancer, potential side effects, family choices, and the child's general health all play a role in how the disease is treated in children.

Track 12: Pediatric Vaccines and Immunization
Immunizations are vital for global health and are fundamental elements of modern medicine. Depending on your location, your child's health, the type of vaccine, and the vaccines' availability, the recommended immunization schedule may differ. The recommended immunization schedule aims to protect infants and young children during the most vulnerable period of their lives—before they are exposed to potentially fatal infections. Vaccines include viruses that have been weakened or variants that resemble viruses (called antigens). This means that while the antigens cannot cause the disease's symptoms or signs, they might stimulate the immune system to manufacture antibodies. If you are exposed to the virus again in the future, these antibodies will help to protect you.

Track 13: Pediatric Gastroenterology and Hepatology
The medical specialties of pediatric gastroenterology and hepatology combine the research of the pancreas, liver, gallbladder, and biliary tree with the investigation of the gastrointestinal system. Acute diarrhea, frequent vomiting, gastritis, and issues with the growth of the stomach tract are among its typical disorders. Seeking expert assistance is mostly motivated by illnesses and difficulties linked to alcohol use and viral hepatitis.

Track 14: Pediatric Endocrinology
A medical specialist known as pediatric endocrinology treats conditions affecting the endocrine system, including diabetes, abnormalities in adolescent sexual and physical development, and more. Pediatric endocrinologists care for patients from their youngest stages through late adolescence and young adulthood, treating them according to their age factor. Pediatric endocrinologists are medical professionals who treat children who have problems with growth, adolescence, diabetes, or other problems involving the hormones and the organs that produce them.

Track 15: Pediatric and Adolescent Diabetes
Type 1 diabetes, which typically affects children, is brought on by the pancreas' inability to produce insulin. Additionally, the pancreatic beta cells were destroyed by the autoimmune system. One in 400 children, adolescents, and young adults under the age of 20 have type 1 diabetes. When a youngster exhibits the typical signs and symptoms of diabetes, together with unusually high blood glucose levels and ketones in the urine, the diagnosis is made. Diabetes type 1 is a chronic condition that has no known cure. The most effective treatment for type 1 diabetes, however, is the prescription of insulin.

Track 17: Pediatric Allergy
Children experience allergies more frequently than adults do. This is because children's immune systems need to be protected against different allergens because they haven't fully matured. The only things that can make a person allergic to something are allergens. The allergy specialist treats kids who are having allergic reactions. The diseases or symptoms brought on by allergic substances will be evaluated and treated by an allergist.

Track 18: Pediatric Cardiology
Pediatric cardiology is a field of medicine that treats problems with the heart and other circulatory system components. The unborn child's heart is the main organ to develop and is crucial to the health of the child for the rest of their lives. Pediatricians that specialize significantly in cardiology are known as pediatric cardiologists. Congenital heart defects, coronary artery disease, heart failure, valvular heart disease, and electrophysiology are all medical conditions that are discovered and treated in this discipline.
