Abstract

Despite efforts of individual clinicians and institutions to prevent continuing deficiencies in children health care quality; manifold gaps and disparities exist. Refining global standards for child health research compels using Standards for Research (StaR) Child Health program, which addresses the contemporary scarcity of and deficiencies in pediatric clinical trials. StaR Child Health brings together leading international experts devoted to developing practical, evidence-based standards to enrich the reliability and relevance of pediatric clinical research.
