This study evaluated the use of electronic health record data to identify pediatric patients with undiagnosed or undertreated asthma in a rural community in West Virginia. Eighteen percent of children with an asthma diagnosis did not have albuterol in their medication list, and 7% of children without an asthma diagnosis had albuterol in their medication list. Keywords: pediatric asthma, electronic health record, EHR, chart tagging, rural, Background Asthma is one of the primary causes of respiratory illness in children (Serebrisky & Wiznia, 2020).

Background: Pediatric patients are being discharged from hospitals with increasingly complex care needs. Family knowledge of how to care for their child post-hospitalization is a quality and safety concern. Research has shown patient satisfaction and retention of educational content can improve using multiple educational modalities. This quality improvement project examined a new approach to preparing families for discharge using an interactive patient care system to deliver education. Method: Five pediatric inpatient units at a large Midwest academic medical center participated in this project, serving patients from infants to young adults. Data on patient satisfaction pre- and post-implementation of the interactive patient care system and the number of videos assigned and viewed post-implementation were examined. Results: Pediatric satisfaction scores for discharge readiness, discharge instruction, and likelihood to recommend improved in the pediatric units, while scores showed normal random variation in the neonatal unit with the implementation of an interactive patient care system. Videos assigned to the pediatric group increased over time as the number of available videos increased. Conclusion: The design and implementation of an interactive patient care system is a complex change process requiring interprofessional collaboration, a robust video library, and clinician adoption of new workflows. Effective implementation strategies can improve patient and family satisfaction with discharge readiness and instructions for home care. Keywords: Pediatric patient education, discharge readiness, interactive education, interprofessional collaboration., Hospitals are challenged to deliver high-quality, safe patient care in an environment with decreasing length of stay. Families must receive timely, meaningful education on their child's condition and plan early [...]
