Core Tip Pediatric complex regional pain syndrome is a complex condition that significantly impacts children’s well-being, yet diagnostic and treatment challenges remain due to the lack of pediatric-specific criteria. This study surveyed physiotherapists to assess current practices and knowledge gaps. Limited use of diagnostic tools and the absence of standardized guidelines were major barriers identified. The findings highlight the need for tailored protocols and improved training in psychological therapies.
