Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

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.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

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.

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

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Family-centered rounds checklist tool

Intervention Type OTHER

A printed checklist containing 9 key tasks associated with effective delivery of family-centered rounds. A previously-identified member of each rounding team was responsible for holding the printed checklist during morning rounds. Team members were trained the in the use of this checklist prior to the post-intervention period, and a brief refresher training was conducted mid-way through the period.

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.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION
