"It is timely that this issue [is] focusing on a wide array of pediatric gastrointestinal (GI) disorders, has identified many of those disorders that may result from or be exacerbated by COVID-19. The authors also describe COVID driven changes in clinical practice, such as dramatically increased use of telemedicine, more intensive sterilization practices before and after GI procedures, and how these changes may impact the health care of children. Given that COVID-19 is likely to remain a global pandemic that is impacting children, it is important that we take this into consideration as we train our current and future pediatricians, including but not limited to those whose professional focus is pediatric gastroenterology. Dr. Pall and the authors who worked with him on this issue have done an excellent job balancing the new COVID necessitated changes in GI practice with other breakthroughs in pediatric GI to bring us this very timely issue of Pediatric Clinics of North America." -- Foreword.

Over a short few decades, the field of pediatric endoscopy has matured from the exploratory to the routine. Performance of endoscopic procedures in children is now a fundamental aspect of the practice of more than 2000 pediatric gastroenterologists in North America, and endoscopic instruments are increasingly being developed with an eye to their pediatric applications. Ensuring safe and effective endoscopy in children requires specific medical knowledge and technical competency, in addition to appropriately designed equipment and settings. Obtaining consent from parents, as well as assent from patients, for the purposes of performing diagnostic and therapeutic gastrointestinal procedures begins with a deep understanding of risks and benefits that endoscopy affords and is typically gained through formal training in the field. Diagnostic endoscopy may help to confirm common pediatric conditions including eosinophilic esophagitis and inflammatory bowel disease, while therapeutic procedures to treat strictures in the GI tract may help children avoid more invasive surgeries. Using endoscopy in children to achieve hemostasis or to remove commonly swallowed foreign bodies, such as lithium batteries or high-powered magnets, can be lifesaving, and the insertion of feeding tubes can help medically complex patients to thrive. In short, pediatric endoscopy is an integral component of healthcare for children, and gaining and understanding of its best practices may help all clinicians to better recognize its role in pediatric disease outcomes.
