Simultaneously implementing pathways for improving asthma, pneumonia, and bronchiolitis care for hospitalized children: Protocol for a hybrid effectiveness-implementation, cluster-randomized trial
Background
Asthma, pneumonia, and bronchiolitis are the top causes of childhood hospitalization in the United States, leading to over 350,000 hospitalizations and ≈$2 billion in costs annually. The majority of these hospitalizations occur in general/community hospitals. Poor guideline adoption by clinicians contributes to poor health outcomes for children hospitalized with these illnesses, including longer recovery time/hospital stay, higher rates of intensive care unit transfer, and increased risk of hospital readmission. A prior single-center study at a children's hospital tested a multicondition clinical pathway intervention (simultaneous implementation of multiple pathways for multiple pediatric conditions) and demonstrated improved clinician guideline adherence and patient health outcomes. This intervention has not yet been studied in community hospitals, which face unique implementation barriers.
Objective
To study the implementation and effectiveness of a multicondition pathway intervention for children hospitalized with asthma, pneumonia, or bronchiolitis in community hospitals.
Methods
We will conduct a pragmatic, hybrid effectiveness-implementation, cluster-randomized trial in community hospitals around the United States (1:1 randomization to intervention vs. wait-list control). Our primary outcome will be the adoption of two to three evidence-based practices for each condition over a sustained period of 2 years. Secondary outcomes include hospital length of stay, ICU transfer, and readmission.
Discussion
This hybrid trial will lead to a comprehensive understanding of how to pragmatically and sustainably implement a multicondition pathway intervention in community hospitals and an assessment of its effects. Enrollment began in July 2022 and is projected to be completed in September 2024. Primary analysis completion is anticipated in March 2025, with reporting of results following.
期刊介绍:
JHM is a peer-reviewed publication of the Society of Hospital Medicine and is published 12 times per year. JHM publishes manuscripts that address the care of hospitalized adults or children.
Broad areas of interest include (1) Treatments for common inpatient conditions; (2) Approaches to improving perioperative care; (3) Improving care for hospitalized patients with geriatric or pediatric vulnerabilities (such as mobility problems, or those with complex longitudinal care); (4) Evaluation of innovative healthcare delivery or educational models; (5) Approaches to improving the quality, safety, and value of healthcare across the acute- and postacute-continuum of care; and (6) Evaluation of policy and payment changes that affect hospital and postacute care.
