'That's kind of under my work blanket'-redeployment experiences of children's hospital staff during the covid-19 pandemic: a qualitative interview study.

Background: During COVID-19 pandemic, a rapid readjustment to continued delivery of healthcare was required. Redeployment is an intentional process to mobilise human resources by reassigning a healthcare worker to a new role or new work location, to achieve sustainable delivery of patient care. We report redeployment experiences of staff from a specialist children's hospital during first and second waves of the United Kingdom COVID-19 pandemic.

A scoping review of the electronic collection and capture of patient reported outcome measures for children and young people in the hospital setting.

Patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) capture patients' views of their health status and the use of PROMs as part of standard care of children and young people has the potential to improve communication between patients/carers and clinicians and the quality of care. Electronic systems for the collection of or access to PROMs and integrating PROMs into electronic health records facilitates their implementation in routine care and could help maximise their value. Yet little is known about the technical aspects of implementation including the electronic systems available for collection and capture and how this may influence the value of PROMs in routine care which this scoping review aims to explore.

"I think her life got so much better": parents' perceptions of children's quality of life following treatment of tracheomalacia with aortopexy.

Background: Aortopexy is a procedure to reduce pressure on the trachea in children with severe tracheomalacia. Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) has not been studied in children who have undergone aortopexy; we aimed to explore parents' perceptions of their child's HRQoL before and after aortopexy.

Methods: Parents of children < 18 years who underwent aortopexy at a quaternary specialist centre were purposively sampled and invited to participate in a semi-structured interview.

Ages and Stages Questionnaires in the assessment of young children after cardiac surgery.

Aims: This study explored the prospective use of the Ages and Stages Questionnaires-3 in follow-up after cardiac surgery.

Materials And Method: For children undergoing cardiac surgery at 5 United Kingdom centres, the Ages and Stages Questionnaires-3 were administered 6 months and 2 years later, with an outcome based on pre-defined cut-points: Red = 1 or more domain scores >2 standard deviations below the normative mean, Amber = 1 or more domain scores 1-2 standard deviations below the normal range based on the manual, Green = scores within the normal range based on the manual.

Results: From a cohort of 554 children <60 months old at surgery, 306 participated in the postoperative assessment: 117 (38.

Developing and testing a toolkit of interventions to improve adherence to non-invasive ventilation in children: the SPIRITUS study protocol.

Introduction: Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is a known effective and safe treatment for children and young people with sleep disordered breathing (SDB). Adherence can be challenging and poor adherence risks undertreatment of SDB. While the risk factors for non-adherence have been widely reported, very few interventions have been tested in any capacity to address barriers to adherence.
