ABSTRACT
Multidisciplinary programs for the care of children with upper and lower respiratory and gastrointestinal tract disorders have emerged across the United States and become known as aerodigestive centers. This model is designed to improve clinical outcomes and healthcare value through a coordinated approach by a team that appreciates the inter-relatedness of these disorders. The primary elements include (1) Interdisciplinary medical and surgical team, (2) Care coordination, (3) Team meeting, and (4) Combined endoscopic procedures. This article will describe the origin and current trends in the multidisciplinary approach to pediatric aerodigestive disorders.
