You're asking whether the Pediatrics article titled "Hospitalizations by Children With Medical Complexity From 2009 to 2022" by Leyenaar et al. (Pediatrics, July 18, 2025; Article e2025071774) is available for purchase. Here's what you need to know:


📄 Purchase & Access Options

  • The article is published in Pediatrics, the official journal of the American Academy of Pediatrics. Access typically requires either:

    • Institutional or personal subscription,

    • An institutional login (e.g., university or hospital),

    • Or pay-per-view purchase directly through the AAP website. This article is listed as Online First and likely behind a paywall (Pediatrics).

  • I do not see any indication that this is open access or freely available.


🚪 Alternative Access Routes

  • Institutional Access: If you're affiliated with a university, healthcare organization, or library, you may be able to access it via institutional subscription.

  • Interlibrary Loan or Document Delivery: Many libraries provide access via document delivery even if they don't subscribe.

  • Contacting the Corresponding Author: Dr. JoAnna Leyenaar is the corresponding author. Authors can sometimes share a copy privately for academic purposes. The correspondence address details are publicly listed (geiselmed.dartmouth.edu, Pediatrics).


🧠 Study Highlights (if you don't want to buy)

Here’s a concise summary of key findings from the paper based on the abstract and publicly accessible info:

  • Trends (2009–2022):

    • Estimated hospitalizations of children with medical complexity (CMC) fell from 1.14 million in 2009 to 1.02 million in 2022.

    • However, CMC represented an increasing share of pediatric healthcare over time:

  • Resource Use & Outcomes in 2022:

    • 79.2% of pediatric hospital days,

    • 92.6% of in-hospital deaths (≈ 9,107 deaths),

    • 83.8% of total pediatric inpatient costs (~ US $30.6 billion) attributed to CMC (Pediatrics, Book学术, Pediatrics).


✅ Summary Table

Question Answer
Is the article available for purchase? Yes—via pay-per-view on the Pediatrics journal website (AAP)
Are there free access options? Likely not; may require institution or contacting the author directly
If not purchased—study available? You can still access key findings (abstract level or via institutional channels)

Let me know if you'd like help finding a journal link to purchase it, writing to the author, or exploring related research on children with medical complexity.
