Pediatric Research
Pediatric Research is one of the most respected peer-reviewed medical journals within the field of pediatrics in the world. Pediatric research is an essential part of children’s hospitals’ work.

This Section argues that the ethics of pediatric research should be harmonized with the law of child protection and parents consent authority. Harmonizing the ethics of pediatric research with the law of child protection and parents’ consent authority would, at a minimum, require revising the federal regulations governing pediatric research to reflect the law’s definitions of permissible harm and risk.
A consistent commitment to the progressive view of child protection ensconced in the law of child protection and parents’ consent authority is ultimately the most important reason to harmonize the ethics of [*pg 615] pediatric research with this law. Finally, although not all pediatric research is connected to the pharmaceutical industry, this sector is clearly associated with the arguments to increase access to the pediatric population for [*pg 621] research,407 and with the growth in spending on pediatric research. The federal rules governing pediatric research largely ensconce prevailing ethical standards. As it proceeds in this direction, society must not forget the lessons of the past that caused it to regulate pediatric research in the first place. The Pediatric Research Institute will reach its goals through: Critical evaluation of outcome data on our patients, Scientific application and evaluation of clinical treatments and medical practice, Collaborations, between departments within our own institution with other facilities that are comparable to us and those caring for similar patients at other stages of their treatment with organizations and individuals in our community, and Dissemination of knowledge Presentations and publications Educational programs for Blythedale’s staff Symposia. With the establishment of a Pediatric Research Institute, Blythedale will be recognized as a center of excellence for clinical research in areas affecting children with disabling illness and their families, as well as to serve as a model for the study of clinical outcomes in treating children with complex medical problems.
The Dell Pediatric Research Institute will combine The University of Texas at Austin’s expertise in life sciences, pharmacology, technology, biomedical engineering and other disciplines with the resources of the new Dell Children’s Medical Center, which opened in June. The cash contribution, the largest gift from a corporate foundation for the Dell Pediatric Research Institute, will be used toward completion of the $97 million, 150,000-square-foot facility, which is under construction at the former Austin municipal airport site. The following loans are NOT repayable under the Loan Repayment Program for Pediatric Researchers: Loans not obtained from a U. In the past two years, money spent on pediatric research at WVU has doubled, from $3 million in 2006 to more than $6 million in 2008. Areas of pediatric research include immune disorders, blood-related and heart diseases, lung development, and cancer and growth disorders.
The dollars reported for these years reflect each IC?s estimates of how much pediatric research it is likely to fund based on overall budget increases and any new initiatives. Although the data show that pediatric research enjoyed a share of the benefits of the doubling period, the proportion of the NIH budget devoted to the pediatric portfolio declined slightly, from 12. While it is often viewed as the institute for the “profession of pediatric research,” NICHD accounted for only a quarter of the NIH pediatric portfolio in FY 2004 (Exhibit 3). Broaden the life-cycle focus of pediatric research. The pediatric community needs to emphasize the potential for investments in pediatric research to influence health and human development across the life cycle.
