Discharge against medical advice in paediatric patients

ConclusionThis study found that the key reasons for DAMA were as follows: lack of satisfaction with physicians and hospital staff, family disturbance due to the presence of other children at home, inadequate economic situation, and being away from home. Providing professional education to parents and expressing the benefits and disadvantages of refusing complete treatment may help parents make better decisions.
