Abstract
Introduction
Children and adolescents undergo rapid physical, emotional, and cognitive development, making them uniquely vulnerable to a range of diseases. Early identification of both physical and mental health issues can lead to timely intervention and significantly reduce morbidity and mortality.. [
Diseases such as asthma, diabetes, congenital heart conditions, and neurodevelopmental disorders like autism spectrum disorder often present during childhood. Mental health conditions, including depression and anxiety, typically emerge during adolescence. [4-6].
Early detection of diseases during childhood and adolescence is critical for preventing long-term health complications, improving treatment outcomes, and ensuring better quality of life. This article explores the significance, current strategies, and challenges of early diagnosis in pediatric populations. [7-10].
conclusion
Investing in early disease detection in children and adolescents is a public health priority. Multidisciplinary approaches involving families, schools, and healthcare providers are essential to build a proactive healthcare system that supports the well-being of future generations.
