Abstract:
Children are affected by all types of disasters disproportionately compared with adults. Despite this, planning and readiness to care for children in disasters is suboptimal locally, nationally, and internationally. These planning gaps increase the likelihood that a disaster will have a greater negative impact on children when compared with adults. New voluntary regional coalitions have been developed to fill this gap. Some are pediatric focused or have pediatrics well integrated into the greater coalition. This article discusses key points of pediatric disaster planning, specific vulnerabilities, and the care of children in general and in specific disaster situations.

In hypothesis testing, a sample statistic is converted to a test statistic using z, t, or chi-square distribution. A critical region is an area under the curve in probability distributions demarcated by the critical value. When the test statistic falls in this region, it suggests that the null hypothesis must be rejected. As this region contains all those values of the...
