Abstract

Advanced practice registered nurses implement evidence-based care guidelines and assess the quality of care delivered to pediatric and adolescent populations to ensure that the highest standards of care are provided to the patients and their families. Standardized health care quality measures allow for assessment of clinical competence, monitoring of equitable health care distribution, improvement of provider/institutional accountability, development of standards for accreditation and certification, informing of quality improvement efforts, and creation of criteria for provider incentive payments. The purpose of this article is to explain why health care quality measures are established, what agencies oversee the development of meaningful pediatric quality measures, and how these measures inform and improve the care provided by pediatric-focused advanced practice registered nurses.

摘要

高级实践注册护士实施基于证据的护理指南，并评估为儿科和青少年人群提供的护理质量，以确保向患者及其家属提供最高标准的护理。标准化的医疗保健质量措施可用于评估临床能力、监测公平的医疗保健分配、提高提供者/机构的问责制、制定认证和认证标准、告知质量改进工作以及为提供者激励性支付制定标准。本文的目的是解释为什么要制定医疗保健质量措施、哪些机构监督有意义的儿科质量措施的制定，以及这些措施如何为以儿科为重点的高级实践注册护士提供的护理提供信息和改进。
