Abstract

Pediatric intensive care is a highly technical sector in which the presence of parents can be a real obstacle. An undeniable evolution allows them today to be permanently near their child, a daily presence with which the caregivers have learned to work. In this sense, it is interesting to look at the reality of a hospitalization in pediatric intensive care.
