Pediatric Integrative Medicine: Where Do We Go From Here?

Posted by  admin  Nov 7, 2013

Help Craft a National Health Services Research Agenda

Did you know that...

  • One quarter of children with a chronic health condition use some type of complementary or alternative medicine (CAM)?
  • One quarter of children who used herbal or non-vitamin supplements also used prescription medications for at least 3 months?

Many children are using CAM today. You can help shape the future direction of the pediatric integrative medicine (IM) field by participating in a brief, anonymous survey being conducted by the CAHMI and the Pediatric Complementary and Alternative Medicine Research Network (PedCAM) with funding from the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine. Results will be used to craft a national research agenda on CAM/IM for children including clinical, health services, and policy research recommendations.

To add your voice and vision to the discussion on the future of pediatric CAM/IM research, go to: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/8VT2XK8 to complete a survey.

Please feel free to forward the survey to your colleagues.

We value your input.
