Abstract
Peer review is an essential step in the publication process and dissemination for scientific information to improve patient care and future research in pediatric patients. It is a professional obligation to ensure high quality, reliable, and relevant information is published. Despite this, many journals face problems finding peer reviewers. Several journals and organizations have developed resources to aid in the training of peer reviewers. The purpose of this primer is to provide an overview of the steps of peer review and to emphasize key points on how to conduct a peer review.
