Reliability and usability of a 7-minute chart review tool to identify pediatric prehospital adverse safety events.
As part of a multiphase study, the authors developed and evaluated the reliability and usability of the pediatric prehospital safety event detection system (PEDS), a tool used to identify safety events in prehospital care. They concluded that the PEDS tool is the first chart review tool designed to identify safety events for children receiving prehospital care, and it displayed good usability and reliability in their study.

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.
