Quality comparison
India has tertiary children’s hospitals and specialist centres. Pediatric cases should be matched to centres with pediatric anaesthesia, PICU/NICU and the correct subspecialty backup. Adult-hospital metrics are not enough.
Important treatment context
Pediatric care needs age-appropriate facilities and specialist teams. The hospital's pediatric capability should be explicit in any selection.
