Purpose: Routine screening for disordered eating or body image concerns is recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics. We evaluated the ability of two educational interventions to increase screening for eating disorders in pediatric primary care practice, predicting that the "active-learning" group would have an increase in documented screening after intervention.
Methods: We studied 303 practitioners in a large independent practice association located in the northeastern United States.
Background And Objective: Chlamydia trachomatis infections are common among sexually active young women. We developed a practice-based quality improvement (QI) collaborative to increase Chlamydia screening in at-risk young women.
Methods: Structured data fields were integrated into the electronic record for practices affiliated with Boston Children's Hospital.
