DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Project Summary/Abstract On April 27th, 2012, with funding from the Agency for Healthcare Research Quality (AHRQ) and participant registration fees, the 2nd annual conference on "Advancing Quality Improvement Science for Children's Health Care Research," was held in conjunction with the Pediatric Academic Societies Meeting. The conference was sponsored by the Academic Pediatric Association (APA), the professional home for academic general pediatrics and by the Department of Health Evidence & Policy of Mount Sinai School of Medicine, which accredited the conference for 7.75 hours of CME. The 150 conference attendees overwhelmingly rated the conference as excellent (4.21 on a 5 point scale) and strongly indicated the ongoing need for similar future conferences. Thus, in response to PA-09-231 we propose to hold a third annual one-day methods conference on designing, implementing, and disseminating quality improvement (QI) research. Based on 2012 conference evaluations, we will increase the number of breakout sessions offered and will include new topic areas of high interest suggested by attendees as well as highly rated sessions from the first two conferences. Interactive breakout sessions will include: quasi-experimental approaches including: cluster randomized trials, stepped wedge designs and interrupted time series; use of statistical process control in QI research; cost effectiveness analysis in QI research; bridging classical biostatistical methods and QI research; advanced regression methods in QI research; developing quality metrics for QI evaluation research; obtaining QI research funding; and publishing and disseminating QI research results. Responding to suggestions from the 2012 evaluations, the breakout sessions will be offered in two tracks, one introductory and the other advanced. Each participant will be asked to select one of these tracks at the time of registration. Each track will offer 3 or 4 topics in the morning session and 4 in the afternoon session. New to the program will be a plenary session on academic career development for QI researchers that will include successful senior, mid- level, and junior faculty with ample time for questions and answers. The proposed conference complements and promotes AHRQ's core research and implementation activities by providing a mechanism for Agency stakeholders and others to (1) enhance their understanding of how to apply state-of-the art QI research methods in order to improve pediatric care, (2) disseminate and implement QI research information to enhance evaluation of health care delivery, and (3) improve the quality and effectiveness of pediatric health care. As we have done previously, we will promote broad attendance by scheduling the meeting one day before the 2013 Pediatric Academic Societies meeting (May 3rd, 2013). Products of the meeting will include a series of white papers related to methodological issues in pediatric QI research, which will be disseminated through the APA website and appropriate publications.

2012年4月27日，在美国卫生保健研究质量机构（AHRQ）的资助和参与者注册费的支持下，第二届“推进儿童卫生保健研究质量改进科学”年会与儿科学术学会会议同时召开。会议由学术儿科协会（APA），学术普通儿科的专业之家和西奈山医学院卫生证据与政策部门赞助，该部门认可会议有7.75小时的CME。150名与会者绝大多数认为这次会议非常好（满分5分，4.21分），并强烈表示未来还需要举行类似的会议。因此，作为对PA-09-231的回应，我们建议举办第三次为期一天的关于设计、实施和传播质量改进（QI）研究的方法会议。根据2012年会议的评估，我们将增加分组会议的数量，并将包括与会者提出的高度感兴趣的新主题领域，以及前两届会议的高评价会议。互动分组讨论将包括：准实验方法，包括：集群随机试验、阶梯楔形设计和中断时间序列；统计过程控制在QI研究中的应用QI研究中的成本效益分析衔接经典生物统计学方法与QI研究；QI研究中的先进回归方法；为质量评价研究制定质量指标；获得QI研究经费；发布和传播QI研究成果。根据2012年评估的建议，分组会议将分为两部分，一个是介绍性的，另一个是高级的。每位参加者将被要求在注册时选择其中一个曲目。
