ABSTRACT
Children are the most vulnerable in natural disasters for their poor self-protection ability. Pediatric deaths in earthquakes are mainly due to cardiopulmonary arrest, severe craniocerebral injury, shock, crush syndrome, and multiple organ failure. Priority should be given to centralized, effective treatment for injured children, with multidisciplinary cooperation, and severe cases need to be transferred to the pediatric intensive care unit, thus improving survival and reducing disability.
