This atlas analyzes the variability in the use of five surgical procedures (appendectomy, adenoidectomy without tonsillectomy, tonsillectomy with or without adenoidectomy, inguinal hernia repair, and orchidopexy) and the variability in urgent admissions for six medical diagnoses (bronchiolitis, asthma, gastroenteritis, urinary tract infections, upper respiratory tract infections and otitis media) in the pediatric population (0-14 years) in 2018 and its evolution since 2003.
This atlas is completed with a methodology document and an infographic with the most relevant results of this atlas.
