We prompted parents to increase their interactions with health-care providers during their children's health-supervision visits. Before scheduled appointments we asked parents of 32 infants and young children if they had specific child health questions or concerns. Sixteen parents randomly assigned to the prompted group were then prompted to initiate discussions of their concerns. Sixteen control parents discussed unrelated topics before their appoitments. Prompted parents initiated significantly more interactions with health-care providers and more health and behavioral topics were discussed during their appointments. Both parent groups reported satisfaction with health-care services. Further research is needed to determine the clinical significance of outcomes associated with enhanced parent-provider interaction during children's health-supervision visits. These visits are ideal settings for behavioral research on improving health care for children and their families.
我们促使家长在孩子的健康监督访视期间增加与医疗保健提供者的互动。在预定预约之前，我们询问了32名婴幼儿的家长是否有特定的儿童健康问题或担忧。然后，随机分配到提示组的16名家长被促使开始讨论他们的担忧。16名对照家长在预约前讨论了不相关的话题。提示组的家长与医疗保健提供者进行的互动显著更多，并且在预约期间讨论了更多的健康和行为话题。两个家长组都对医疗保健服务表示满意。需要进一步研究以确定在儿童健康监督访视期间增强家长与提供者互动所产生的结果的临床意义。这些访视是开展改善儿童及其家庭医疗保健的行为研究的理想场所。
