AbstractOver the last decades, health care has been moving away from the paternalistic model, to one of family-centered care. In the pediatric emergency department, this new trend has led to parents playing a larger role in the health care of children, particularly during invasive procedures and/or resuscitation. Despite the increased attention to family presence, it remains a controversial topic, especially among emergency medical staff. Several studies have been performed that look at the advantages and disadvantages of this new way of conceiving child health care. To our knowledge, there is only one Spanish article on this topic, which is the reason why we performed a literature review on family presence in the emergency department.
