Racial Disparities in Hospital-acquired Conditions among Pediatric Patients

Children’s Hospitals’ Solutions for Patient Safety (SPS) is a network of over 140 children’s hospitals who share the vision of working together to eliminate serious harm across all pediatric hospitals. The SPS network is built on the fundamental belief that by sharing successes and failures transparently and learning from one another, children’s hospitals can achieve their goals more effectively and quickly than working alone. Each year, SPS hosts National Learning Sessions to which members are invited to submit abstracts describing relevant safety research or improvement work. The following abstracts were among the top submitted for the SPS Spring 2021 National Learning Session.
