The German Pediatric Pain Center (Deutsches Kinderschmerzzentrum) helps children, adolescents, and young adults living with chronic pain. Its mission is to support patients in understanding and managing pain so they can regain greater independence and shape their lives for themselves. Care is provided through the center’s own pain outpatient clinic and inpatient pain ward, with services intended for young people and their families as well as doctors and therapists.

The center also shares educational information about pain and practical ways to cope with it. Its dedicated website, meine-bauchstelle.com, provides scientifically grounded, age-appropriate resources for parents, children, and adolescents about functional abdominal pain, including a film explaining the condition. The organization contributes to professional learning through the Datteln Pediatric Pain Days, a multiprofessional congress featuring presentations and workshops on pediatric pain therapy and pediatric palliative care. The center offers direct appointment scheduling and provides information for visitors, professionals, and prospective employees. Its work combines clinical support, education, and knowledge-sharing to help young people live better with chronic pain.
