To determine Colorado American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) pediatricians' involvement in community-based activities and awareness of and interest in the AAP Community Access to Child Health (CATCH) program, a 22-item survey was mailed to all general pediatrician AAP fellows and candidate fellows practicing in Colorado (n = 434). The return rate was 65%. Of the respondents, 73% provide direct patient care as their primary professional activity, 58% reported either current or past involvement in community-based programs outside of their practices, 91% of this community-based work was voluntary, and 80% of the respondents described this work as moderate to very rewarding. Half of the respondents (51%) were aware of the AAP CATCH program, and 68% were interested in attending a statewide CATCH meeting. We conclude that Colorado AAP pediatrician survey respondents participate heavily in community programs outside of their clinical practices and that among this group there is substantial interest in the AAP CATCH program.
为了确定科罗拉多州美国儿科学会（AAP）的儿科医生参与社区活动的情况，以及他们对AAP儿童社区健康服务（CATCH）项目的了解程度和兴趣，我们向在科罗拉多州执业的所有普通儿科AAP会员和候选会员邮寄了一份包含22个问题的调查问卷（n = 434）。回复率为65%。在受访者中，73%将直接为患者提供医疗服务作为其主要专业活动，58%报告目前或过去参与过其执业范围之外的社区项目，其中91%的社区工作是自愿的，80%的受访者称这项工作带来了中度到非常大的收获。一半的受访者（51%）了解AAP CATCH项目，68%有兴趣参加全州范围的CATCH会议。我们得出结论，参与调查的科罗拉多州AAP儿科医生大量参与了临床实践之外的社区项目，并且在这一群体中，对AAP CATCH项目有着浓厚的兴趣。
