Pediatric anesthesia in Latin America faces multiple barriers that compromise safe and effective perioperative care for children. Profound social and economic inequalities, shortages of specialists, fragmented educational systems, and limited scientific productivity remain persistent obstacles. The low density of anesthesiologists with formal training in pediatric anesthesia, particularly in rural areas and low-income countries, is directly associated with poorer surgical outcomes and higher complication rates. Structural limitations include insufficient fellowship programs, inconsistent regulations, and the lack of recognition of pediatric anesthesiology as a distinct discipline. Research productivity is restricted by limited funding, bureaucratic obstacles, weak infrastructure, and barriers to accessing scientific journals, which perpetuate dependence on evidence generated in high-income countries. Recent collaborative initiatives, including multinational studies and international educational programs, show promising progress by building networks and strengthening training. However, sustained investment, professional retention, and equitable access to knowledge are essential to close existing gaps and improve child health outcomes.
