Safer Type 1 Diabetes Care at Home: SEIPS-based Process Mapping with Parents and Clinicians.

Introduction: The limited data indicate that pediatric medical errors in the outpatient setting, including at home, are common. This study is the first step of our to address medication errors and treatment delays among children with T1D in the outpatient setting. We aimed to identify failures and potential solutions associated with medication errors and treatment delays among outpatient children with T1D.

Prospective Study of the Multisite Spread of a Medication Safety Intervention: Factors Common to Hospitals With Improved Outcomes.

Context and implementation approaches can impede the spread of patient safety interventions. The objective of this article is to characterize factors associated with improved outcomes among 9 hospitals implementing a medication safety intervention. Nephrotoxic Injury Negated by Just-in-Time Action (NINJA) is a pharmacist-driven intervention that led to a sustained reduction in nephrotoxic medication-associated acute kidney injury (NTMx-AKI) at 1 hospital.

Measurement of Ambulatory Medication Errors in Children: A Scoping Review.

Background And Objectives: Children use most medications in the ambulatory setting where errors are infrequently intercepted. There is currently no established measure set for ambulatory pediatric medication errors. We have sought to identify the range of existing measures of ambulatory pediatric medication errors, describe the data sources for error measurement, and describe their reliability.

Disparities in COVID-19-Related Psychological Distress Among Recipients of a State's Public Mental Health Services.

Objective: The authors examined changes in perceived anxiety, stress, and mental health symptoms (i.e., psychological distress) reported by recipients of New York State public mental health services during the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as whether these changes varied by demographic characteristics or pandemic-related socioeconomic challenges.

Preventable harm because of outpatient medication errors among children with leukemia and lymphoma: A multisite longitudinal assessment.

Background: There is little longitudinal information about the type and frequency of harm resulting from medication errors among outpatient children with cancer. We aimed to characterize rates and types of medication errors and harm to outpatient children with leukemia and lymphoma over 7 months of treatment.

Methods: We recruited children taking medications at home for leukemia or lymphoma from three pediatric cancer centers.
