In this special Complex Care Journal Club podcast episode, co-hosts Emily Goodwin, Kristie Malik, and Kathleen Huth interview presenters of posters and oral abstracts relevant to the care of children with medical complexity at the Pediatric Academic Societies (PAS) 2025 annual meeting. Speakers describe the implications of their study findings, messages for patients and families, and priority areas for research that they hope can be investigated further by the complex care community in the coming years.
