Exploring the "shared" in shared decision-making in the care for children with chronic diseases or disabilities: what are the roles of parents and professionals?

Role definitions may support both partners in the process of SDM.

A Multidisciplinary Approach: Management and Rehabilitation of Children With Pediatric Post-COVID-19 Condition.

The Intrarater and Interrater Reliability of the OMT Classification Among Physicians With a Different Background.

Background: The Oberg-Manske-Tonkin (OMT) classification established excellent reliability scores in several validation studies. However, one study published in 2022 found much lower scores in a subanalysis of their sample when very simple anomalies were excluded. Our study assessed the reliability of the OMT among physicians with a different background, all involved in congenital hand anomaly care, and analyzed codes with less agreement.
