The role of shared decision making in pediatric food allergy management.
Shared decision making was first highlighted in a report by the Institute of Medicine in 2001. The primary aim of this initiative was to improve the quality of care provided to patients in the United States by creating a health care system that is safe, effective, efficient, and equitable. For the purposes of this review, the investigators discussed different areas of food allergy management within a single complex case, focusing on the role of shared decision making.

Under-immunization of pediatric transplant recipients: a call to action for the pediatric community.
This article is a call to action for pediatric solid organ transplant recipients to receive their recommended immunizations. Vaccine-preventable infections (VIPs) occur in 1 in 6 pediatric transplant recipients and these hospitalizations result in significant morbidity, mortality, graft injury, and cost. There has been an increase in the overall population in non-medical vaccine exemptions, which reduces herd immunity and creates greater risk for patients undergoing or already having received transplants.
