The Use of Entrustable Professional Activities in Pediatric Postgraduate Medical Education: A Systematic Review.

Background: Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs) provide a framework to make judgments of trainees' abilities in several settings including postgraduate medical education. No systematic review of the role of EPAs in pediatrics has yet been performed.

Objectives: In our systematic review, we sought to determine the use of EPAs in pediatrics to identify research gaps, summarize and discuss evidence relating to the development, implementation, and assessment.
