| Popis: | Background Despite significant developments in acute pain research in hospitalized children, pain assessment and management practices for this population remain sub-optimal. To address the gap between research and practice a multidimensional, knowledge translation intervention, Evidence-based Practice for Improving Quality (EPIQ) [1] was successfully implemented at eight Canadian tertiary pediatric hospitals [2]. EPIQ was effective in improving pain practices immediately following the intervention completion in the EPIQ units compared to standard care (SC) [2]. However, the sustainability of these improvements requires consideration. The objective of this study is to determine the sustainability of the overall effect of EPIQ on pain practices 12 months post intervention. |
