Describe the association between caregiver presence on hospital day 1 and outcomes related to readmissions, pain, and adverse events (AE).Caregiver presence during general pediatrics rounds on hospital day 1 was recorded, along with demographic data and clinical outcomes via chart review. AE data were obtained from the safety reporting system. χ2 tests compared demographic characteristics between present and absent caregivers. Background elimination determined significant predictors of caregiver presence and their association with outcomes.A total of 324 families were assessed (34.9% non-Hispanic white, 41.4% Black, 17% Hispanic or Latinx, 6.8% other race or ethnicity). Adolescents (aged ≥14 years) had increased odds of not having a caregiver present compared with 6- to 13-year-olds (36.2% vs 10%; adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 5.11 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.88–13.87]). Publicly insured children were more likely to not have a caregiver present versus privately insured children (25.1% vs 12.4%; aOR 2.38 [95% CI 1.19–4.73]). Compared with having a caregiver present, children without caregivers were more likely to be readmitted at 7 days (aOR 3.6 [95% CI 1.0–12.2]), receive opiates for moderate/severe pain control (aOR 11.5 [95% CI 1.7–75.7]), and have an AE reported (aOR 4.0 [95% CI 1.0–15.1]).Adolescents and children with public insurance were less likely to have a caregiver present. Not having a caregiver present was associated with increased readmission, opiate prescription, and AE reporting. Further research is needed to delineate whether associations with clinical outcomes reflect differences in quality of care and decrease barriers to caregiver presence. |
