In most cases the pain is not associated with the heart. It is primarily identified by the observance or report of pain by the infant, child or adolescent by reports of distress by parents or caregivers. Chest pain is not uncommon in children. Many children are seen in ambulatory clinics, emergency departments and hospitals and cardiology clinics. Most often there is a benign cause for the pain for most children. Some have conditions that are serious and possibly life-threatening. Chest pain in pediatric patients requires careful physical examination and a detailed history that would indicate the possibility of a serious cause. Studies of pediatric chest pain are sparse. It has been difficult to create evidence-based guidelines for evaluation.[1] Differential diagnosisChest pain in children is usually evaluated in the emergency departments. It can be distressing for parents and children. Pediatric chest pain differs from chest pain in adults because it is most often unrelated to the heart.[2] The causes of pediatric chest pain vary according to the organ or tissue in the child. that generates the pain. Generally, muscular skeletal pain, which includes costochondritis, is the reason for the emergency department visit. Pain that is felt in the chest but is due to muscular skeletal inflammation or an unknown cause and accounts for 7% and 69% visits. Muscular skeletal pain is described and defined differently as a diagnosis of exclusion or is documented as being associated with idiopathic causes. Asthma and other respiratory symptoms are the second most common presentation. Respiratory associated causes compose 13% to 24% of pediatric chest pain symptoms. Gastrointestinal and psychogenic symptoms reported by parents and patients occur less than 10% of the time. Cardiac causes of pediatric chest pain are found infrequently and are not identified more than 5% of the time. Unknown causes, were estimated to account for 20% to 61% of the final diagnosis given. Patients who receive a diagnosis of cardiac disease are more apt to have acute pain. This pain often awakes them from sleep or presents with fever or abnormal observations found during the physical examination. Trauma can also be a cause for chest pain and has been found to be associated with the pain in 5% of the patients.[1] Children can present with chest pain can have a sudden onset related to vigorous physical activity and coughing. These symptoms seem to be closely associated with asthma.[1] Infection with Haemophilus influenzae can cause chest pain.[2] PreliminarySince most causes of pediatric and adolescent chest pain are not considered life-threatening, parents and their children are often reassured that in the majority of cases, the cause of the pain can be determined. If the child or adolescent appears to have some dehydration, and intravenous line along with administration of saline is done. The clinician may or may not decide to perform diagnostic testing . This is especially true if the child or adolescent has symptoms of chronic pain. If an obvious cause of the chest pain is not readily apparent, testing may begin with an x-ray Some preliminary diagnosis include:
DiagnosisPreliminary "red flags" are identified that are more likely to suggest chest pain associated with heart. These are:
TestingIf the diagnosis is unclear, the clinician may order additional testing. These tests may be an electrocardiogram, stress test, pulmonary function test, drug screen and ultrasound.[6][4] Muscular skeletal causes{{div col|colwidth=30em}}

EpidemiologyChest pain is relatively common in children and adolescents. Unlike adults, the cause is rarely cardiac.[11] Approximately 0.3% to 0.6% of emergency department department visits by pediatric patients are for chest pain. The emergency department visits are consistent throughout the seasons and times of year. The median age pediatric patients that complain of pain is from 12 to 13 years old both males and females display the symptoms and signs at approximately the same ratio.[11] Those that do complain of the chest pain usually present with acute pain that they have experienced for less than one day. This is not universal though. A small study in Turkey evaluated patients and found that 59% complained of pain that they had had for more than one month in duration. Estimates of 13% to 24% of patients seen in the emergency department are found to have a pulmonary association with their pain.[1] TreatmentChildren who have chest pain that is related to asthma and exercise stress can be treated with bronchodilator use.[1] If there is obviously distress and difficulty breathing, treatment to provide the support of airway and breathing is provided. In addition, treatment can include measures to support circulation.[8] Part of effective treatment includes obtaining a detailed medical history .[11] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 {{cite journal|last1=Thull-Freedman|first1=Jennifer|title=Evaluation of Chest Pain in the Pediatric Patient|journal=Medical Clinics of North America|volume=94|issue=2|year=2010|pages=327–347|issn=0025-7125|doi=10.1016/j.mcna.2010.01.004|pmid=20380959|postscript=: Access provided by the University of Pittsburgh}} 2. ^{{cite journal|last1=Yeh|first1=Y-H|last2=Chu|first2=P-H|last3=Yeh|first3=C-H|last4=Jan Wu|first4=Y-J|last5=Lee|first5=M-H.|last6=Jung|first6=S-M|last7=Kuo|first7=C-T|title=Haemophilus influenzae pericarditis with tamponade as the initial presentation of systemic lupus erythematosus|journal=International Journal of Clinical Practice|volume=58|issue=11|year=2004|pages=1045–1047|issn=1368-5031|doi=10.1111/j.1742-1241.2004.00041.x|pmid=15605669}} 3. ^{{cite journal|last1=Maharaj|first1=Satish S|last2=Chang|first2=Simone M|title=Cardiac tamponade as the initial presentation of systemic lupus erythematosus: a case report and review of the literature|journal=Pediatric Rheumatology|volume=13|issue=1|year=2015|pages=9|issn=1546-0096|doi=10.1186/s12969-015-0005-0}} 4. ^{{cite journal |last1=Brass |first1=Patrick |title=Ultrasound guidance versus anatomical landmarks for subclavian or femoral vein catheterization |journal=Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews |last2=Hellmic |first2=Martin |last3=Kolodziej |first3=Laurentius |last4=Schick |first4=Guido |last5=Smith |first5=Andrew F |year=2015 |doi=10.1002/14651858.CD011447 |doi-access=free}} 5. ^{{cite journal|last1=Keech|first1=Brian M.|title=Thoracic epidural analgesia in a child with multiple traumatic rib fractures|journal=Journal of Clinical Anesthesia|volume=27|issue=8|year=2015|pages=685–691|issn=0952-8180|doi=10.1016/j.jclinane.2015.05.008|pmid=26118312}} 6. ^{{cite journal|last1=Bounakis|first1=Nikolaos|last2=Karampalis|first2=Christos|last3=Sharp|first3=Hilary|last4=Tsirikos|first4=Athanasios I|title=Surgical treatment of scoliosis in Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome type 2: a case report|journal=Journal of Medical Case Reports|volume=9|issue=1|year=2015|pages=10|issn=1752-1947|doi=10.1186/1752-1947-9-10}} 7. ^{{cite journal|last1=Stroud|first1=Andrea M.|last2=Tulanont|first2=Darena D.|last3=Coates|first3=Thomasena E.|last4=Goodney|first4=Philip P.|last5=Croitoru|first5=Daniel P.|title=Epidural analgesia versus intravenous patient-controlled analgesia following minimally invasive pectus excavatum repair: a systematic review and meta-analysis|journal=Journal of Pediatric Surgery|volume=49|issue=5|year=2014|pages=798–806|issn=0022-3468|doi=10.1016/j.jpedsurg.2014.02.072|pmid=24851774|pmc=5315444}} 8. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 {{cite book | last = McMahon | first = Maureen | title = Pediatrics a competency-based companion | publisher = Saunders/Elsevier | location = Philadelphia, PA | year = 2011 | isbn = 978-1-4160-5350-7 |postscript=: Access provided by the University of Pittsburgh}} 9. ^{{cite journal|last1=Punja|first1=Mohan|last2=Mark|first2=Dustin G.|last3=McCoy|first3=Jonathan V.|last4=Javan|first4=Ramin|last5=Pines|first5=Jesse M.|last6=Brady|first6=William|title=Electrocardiographic manifestations of cardiac infectious-inflammatory disorders|journal=The American Journal of Emergency Medicine|volume=28|issue=3|year=2010|pages=364–377|issn=0735-6757|doi=10.1016/j.ajem.2008.12.017|pmid=20223398|postscript=:Access provided by the University of Pittsburgh}} 10. ^{{cite journal |last1=Legg |first1=Julian P. |last2=Griksaitis |first2=Michael J. |last3=Collins |first3=Samuel A. |title=15-minute consultation: A structured approach to the assessment of chest pain in a child |journal=Archives of Disease in Childhood - Education and Practice |date=1 August 2014 |volume=99 |issue=4 |pages=122–126 |doi=10.1136/archdischild-2013-303919 |url=http://ep.bmj.com/content/99/4/122.full.pdf+html |language=en |issn=1743-0585}} 11. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite journal|last1=Collins|first1=S.
