简要总结
The goal of this study is to develop, implement, and evaluate the effectiveness of an intervention designed to facilitate family engagement during bedside rounds at a children's hospital. The intervention consists of a "checklist" of key behaviors associated with the delivery of quality family-centered rounds, as well as training in the use of the checklist tool. In a pre-post controlled design, two hospital services will be randomized to use the checklist while two others will be randomized to usual care. The intervention is expected to increase to the performance of key checklist behaviors, family engagement, and family perceptions of patient safety.
详细描述
Family engagement in children's healthcare encounters has been suggested as a means to improve safety. To engage families in care, the recommended practice is to conduct rounds at the child's bedside with the family present (family-centered rounds). Family-centered rounds strive to engage families in (1) a relationship with care providers, (2) exchange of information for decision making, and (3) deliberation about decisions. Bedside rounds represent a consistent venue to engage families in the care of hospitalized children, yet no studies have systematically identified and examined the barriers and facilitators of family engagement during rounds as a means to improve safety.

研究组 & 干预措施
Family-centered rounds checklist
During the "post-intervention" period, health care team members on two pediatric inpatient services received the Family-centered Rounds Checklist tool, as well as training in how to use the checklist in the delivery of effective family-centered rounds
干预措施: Family-centered rounds checklist tool (Other)
Usual care
Two pediatric inpatient services were not provided the Family-centered rounds checklist tool, and delivered morning rounds in their usual manner. These services served as a control.
结局指标
主要结局
Parent perceptions of hospital safety climate
时间窗: Change between baseline (inpatient admission) and study completion (discharge from hospital, an average of 6 days)
Children's Hospital Safety Climate survey
Family engagement in rounds
时间窗: Every family-centered morning round that occurred during the patient's hospital stay through study completion, an average of 6 days
Video data was collected for every morning round over the course of the patient's hospital stay. These videos were coded for measures of family engagement in rounds using established and validated coding systems (e.g. RIAS).
次要结局
- Checklist item performance(Every family-centered morning round that occurred during the patient's hospital stay through study completion, an average of 6 days)
