OBJECTIVE To describe the development and implementation of a Peer Curbside Consult Service (PCCS) for a pediatric hospital medicine (PHM) division. METHODS We developed a pilot intervention with hospitalists at a freestanding children’s hospital to provide peer consultation services for challenging clinical cases. Postconsultation surveys collected from both the requesting and consulting hospitalists provided feedback about the program. The 12-point Template for Intervention Description and Replication (TIDieR) checklist is used to describe the process for program creation and implementation. RESULTS The PCCS has provided 60 consultations in the first 2 years since implementation in April 2020 and supports a large PHM division with >75 members who practice at a tertiary care, freestanding children’s hospital and 7 affiliate sites. Hospitalists request peer consultation for challenging clinical cases. The consultations were typically conducted in person or via telephone. Currently, 11 PHM faculty members within the division volunteer as consultants, with 2 assigned per week. Electronic postconsultation experience surveys were received from 70% of requesting and 89% of consultant hospitalists. We also provide preliminary data from this pilot intervention in the Supplemental Information. CONCLUSIONS We successfully established a peer consult service that provided just-in-time clinical decision support across the various practice sites. Through transparent reporting using the TIDieR checklist, other divisions may be able to replicate and adapt their own peer consult program. |
