美国儿科学会政策声明“儿科医生在社区儿科中的作用”中的几项建议强调了研究作为促进儿童健康和福祉的变革推动者的重要作用。本文提供了（1）思考社区儿科研究的框架，（2）进行社区级研究的重要特殊考虑因素，（3）显着降低儿童死亡率的社区级研究示例（预防婴儿猝死综合症），（4）当前问题的示例，说明社区儿科研究的重要性（促进入学准备），以及（5）对未来研究方向的讨论。 《2010 年健康人民》中概述的美国面临的许多主要健康问题都是影响儿童或根源于儿童期的问题，并且可能通过社区层面的研究和干预措施得到解决。显然，儿科医生应该学会参与、倡导和开展更多的社区儿科研究。
Several recommendations in the American Academy of Pediatrics policy statement "The Pediatrician's Role in Community Pediatrics" underscore the essential role of research as an agent of change to promote the health and well-being of children. This article provides ( 1) a framework for thinking about research in community pediatrics, ( 2) special considerations important in conducting community-level research, ( 3) an example of community-level research that has significantly decreased mortality in children ( prevention of sudden infant death syndrome), ( 4) an example of a current issue illustrating the importance of community pediatrics research ( promotion of school readiness), and ( 5) a discussion of future directions for research. Many of the leading health problems facing the United States as outlined in Healthy People 2010 are problems that affect children or have their roots in childhood and are likely to be addressed by community-level research and interventions. It seems clear that pediatricians should be learning to participate in, advocate for, and conduct more community pediatrics research.
