Usability and Acceptability of the QuestLeukemia Mobile Application: A Pilot Study for An Educational and Psychological Intervention for Children with Chronic Illnesses.

It is widely accepted that educational interventions benefit children with chronic diseases (disease awareness and autonomy) or those undergoing medical procedures (decreased anxiety and improved satisfaction).

Family Outcomes After the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit: A Scoping Review.

Background: Intensivists are increasingly attuned to the postdischarge outcomes experienced by families because patient recovery and family outcomes are interdependent after childhood critical illness.
