Hospital-based quality measures for pediatric mental health care.
The objective of this study was to develop and test medical record-based measures used to assess quality of pediatric mental health care in the emergency department (ED) and inpatient settings. The investigators drafted an evidence-based set of pediatric mental health care quality measures for the ED and inpatient settings and used them to identify sex and race disparities and substantial hospital variation.

Does caregiver participation in decision making within child welfare agencies influence children's primary and mental health care service use?
This study uses a national sample of children involved with child welfare to compare their health service use between those children served through a participatory decision making (PDM) practice and those who did not experience it. It concluded that lower-risk families were more likely to be served through PDM which was positively associated with child use of primary health services.
