RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effectiveness of a new model, Case Analysis and Translation to Care in Hospital (CATCH), for the review of pediatric inpatient cases when an adverse event or "close call" had occurred. STUDY DESIGN: The curricular intervention consisted of an introductory podcast/workshop, mentorship of presenters, and monthly CATCH rounds over 16 months. The study was conducted with 22 pediatricians at a single tertiary care center. Intervention assessment occurred using participant surveys at multiple intervals: pre/post the intervention, presenter experience (post), physicians involved and mentors experience (post), and after each CATCH session. Paired t-tests and thematic analysis were used to analyze data. Time required to support the CATCH process was used to assess feasibility. RESULTS: Our overall experience and data revealed a strong preference for the CATCH model, high levels of engagement and satisfaction with CATCH sessions, and positive presenter as well as physicians-involved and mentor experiences. Participants reported that the CATCH model is feasible, engages physicians, promotes a safe learning environment, facilitates awareness of tools for case analysis, and provides opportunities to create "CATCH of the Day" recommendations to support translation of learning to clinical practice. CONCLUSIONS: The CATCH model has significant potential to strengthen clinical case rounds in pediatric hospital medicine. Future research is needed to assess the effectiveness of the model at additional sites and across medical specialities.
