The Stepped Wedge Cluster Randomized Trial and Its Potential for Child Health Services Research: A Narrative Review
Academic PediatricsVol. 15Issue 2p128–133Published online: January 20, 2015- Yasaman Fatemi
- Robert M. Jacobson
Cited in Scopus: 10We foresee an increasing role for the stepped wedge cluster randomized trial design in child health services research. Although a recent systematic review only identified 25 such studies,1 those studies offer themselves as compelling examples to consider. As we will demonstrate, the stepped wedge cluster randomized trial is particularly apt as a research design for health services research. Furthermore, the stepped wedge cluster randomized trial is particularly attractive for health services research concerning children and adolescents because its design addresses problems that complicate child health services research and differentiate those efforts from adult health services research. - Emergency Department

Cited in Scopus: 57Although the emergency department (ED) provides essential care for severely ill or injured children, past research has shown that children often visit the ED for potentially preventable illnesses, including asthma. We sought to determine how children's rate of ED visits for asthma has changed over the last decade and to analyze what factors are associated with a child's potentially preventable ED visit for asthma. - CHIP/Medicaid

Concept and Measurement of Pediatric Value
Academic PediatricsVol. 14Issue 5SupplementS33–S38Published in issue: September, 2014- Christopher B. Forrest
- Jeffrey H. Silber
Cited in Scopus: 14In the new health care marketplace, families will be making important decisions concerning choice of health plan, health provider, and even accountable care organizations. Ideally, they would make these decisions using information on health care value, which comprises the relationships between patient/family-centered outcomes (the outputs of health care services) and costs of providing care to achieve these outcomes. Providing information on pediatric value will require new investments in data collection systems that include outcomes that matter to children and families and costs measured at the level of the child. - Article

Cited in Scopus: 26Antipsychotic prescribing for youth has increased rapidly, is linked with serious health concerns, and lacks clear measures of quality for pediatric care. We reviewed treatment guidelines relevant to 7 quality concepts for appropriate use and management of youth on antipsychotics: 1) use in very young children, 2) multiple concurrent antipsychotics, 3) higher-than-recommended doses, 4) use without a primary indication, 5) access to psychosocial interventions, 6) metabolic screening, and 7) follow-up visits with a prescriber. - Article

- and others
Cited in Scopus: 17Health care reform has increased demand for pediatric health care quality evaluations, particularly those that assess the impact of care on patient and population health outcomes. Many of today's most common childhood conditions are characterized by symptoms, behaviors, and functional limitations that are best assessed as patient reported outcomes (PROs). Although they remain greatly underutilized, PROs have the potential to improve pediatric health care quality assessment at the point of care and through system-level performance evaluations. - Overview

Cited in Scopus: 4The Children's Health Insurance Program Reauthorization Act (CHIPRA) of 2009 provides an opportunity to consider and enhance the measurement of children's health care quality as a means to improve child health.1 The legislation required the identification of an initial child core set of measures for voluntary use by Medicaid/Child Health Insurance (CHIP) programs. The initial child core set was published in 2009, and after its most current update in 2014, the list now includes 23 pediatric measures. - Research Methods: Transition Readiness Assessment Questionnaire

Growing Up Poor: A Pediatric Response
Academic PediatricsVol. 14Issue 5p431–435Published online: June 16, 2014- Barry Zuckerman
Cited in Scopus: 12The original mission of Boston City Hospital, established in 1864, now Boston Medical Center (BMC), was to provide medical care to all regardless of race, ethnicity, or ability to pay. Nationally, health insurance for children has increased, although disparities by race and income remain.1 However, despite the largest expansion of health insurance in the nation, covering 97% of Massachusetts children and biomedical treatment advances, the low-income and minority children seen at BMC continue to suffer disproportionally from low birth weight, asthma, learning disabilities, and most health problems compared to their nonpoor peers. - Issues in Mental Health
