The latest research study by US-based PALISI Global Health highlights the exceptional quality of pediatric Emergency Rooms (ERs) in government hospitals operated by ChildLife Foundation.
A one-year study (2021-2022) evaluated ERs at:
- Civil Hospital Karachi
- Sheikh Zayed Children Hospital, Larkana.
The findings are remarkable: the mortality rate for critically ill children in these hospitals is just 1.2%, compared to an average of 6.3% across 46 sites in 19 low-income countries.
This success underscores the modernization of ChildLife’s ER featuring improved infrastructure, state-of-the-art equipment, and well-trained healthcare professionals. Our efficient systems and protocols have significantly increased survival rates, treating over 2 million children annually, free of cost across Pakistan.
