Abstract:
Retrospective chart review is an accessible form of research that is commonly used across medical fields but is underutilized in behavioral health. As a relatively newer area of research, the field of pediatric integrated primary care (IPC) would particularly benefit from guidelines for conducting a methodologically sound chart review study. Here, we use our experiences building a chart review procedure for a pediatric IPC research project to offer strategies for optimizing reliability (consistency), validity (accuracy), and efficiency. We aim to provide guidance for conducting a chart review study in the specific setting of pediatric IPC so that researchers can apply this methodology toward generating research in this field.
摘要:
回顾性图表审查是一种可访问的研究形式,通常在医学领域使用,但在行为健康方面未得到充分利用。作为一个相对较新的研究领域,儿科综合初级保健(IPC)领域将特别受益于进行方法学合理图表综述研究的指南.这里,我们利用我们的经验为儿科IPC研究项目建立图表审查程序,提供优化可靠性(一致性)的策略,有效性(准确性),和效率。我们的目标是为在儿科IPC的特定环境中进行图表审查研究提供指导,以便研究人员可以将这种方法应用于该领域的研究。
