Using a pediatric trigger tool to estimate total harm burden hospital-acquired conditions represent.
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Partnership for Patients program identified 9 hospital-acquired conditions (HACs) for reduction, to make care safer, more reliable, and less costly. However, the proportion of inpatient pediatric harm represented by these HACs is unknown. The investigators conducted a retrospective review of 240 harms previously identified using the Pediatric All-Cause Harm Measurement Tool, a trigger tool that is applied to medical records to comprehensively identify harms.
