dc.descriptionIntroduction Modern technology is revolutionising pediatric healthcare, enhancing clinical decision-making, improving patient outcomes, and streamlining care delivery. From artificial intelligence (AI)-driven diagnostics to biosensors for continuous health monitoring, to virtual reality to reduce pain and anxiety in children, technological innovations are transforming the future of pediatric care, making it more precise, efficient, and patient-centred. However, the challenge lies in ensuring that these advancements are integrated responsibly, ethically, and equitably. This editorial acknowledges the exponential growth of modern technology in pediatric healthcare, highlighting both its successes and existing evidence gaps. It also emphasizes the need to counterbalance research waste from unadopted interventions while ensuring equitable, sustainable, and child-focused technology solutions.
