ABSTRACT

Background: Peer review to assess the quality of documentation is essential, as it provides a framework for constructive feedback, using evaluators with similar qualifications to increase acceptability. Objective: To determine the feasibility of implementing a peer review continuous quality improvement program for pharmacists' documentation at the Montreal Children's Hospital. Methods: A prospective, single-centre mixed-methods feasibility study was conducted (from January to June 2021) to evaluate the practicality and acceptability of a peer review program (PRP) for assessing the quality of pharmacists' documentation. A peer review committee of 5 pharmacists evaluated their peers' clinical notes using a standardized assessment tool. Practicality was determined through the time required for administrative and evaluative tasks and the resources needed for each evaluation cycle. Acceptability was determined through pooled quantitative data related to pharmacists' perceived relevance of the PRP, confidence in their peers, and satisfaction with the evaluation process. Qualitative data collected through surveys, a focus group, and semistructured individual interviews helped to further explain the results. Results: A total of 37.4 hours was required to complete both administrative and evaluative tasks in one peer review cycle, which respected the budgeted cut-off for practicality. Acceptability was also achieved, given that more than 80% of survey respondents found the PRP relevant to their practice, were confident in their peers, and were satisfied with the PRP. Qualitative results showed that participants found the PRP to be instructive and that qualitative feedback was preferred over a grade issued as a percentage. Conclusion: This study showed that it is feasible to implement a PRP to assess the quality of pharmacists' documentation. To ensure success, it is key that documentation objectives and department resources be predefined.


Contexte: L'évaluation par les pairs afin d'évaluer la qualité de la documentation est essentielle, car elle fournit un cadre pour une rétroaction constructive émise par des évaluateurs ayant des qualifications similaires afin d'augmenter l'acceptabilité. Objectif: Déterminer la faisabilité d'implanter un programme d'évaluation par les pairs en continu de la qualité de la documentation des pharmaciens à l'Hôpital de Montréal pour Enfants. Méthodes: Une étude de faisabilité prospective, monocentrique et de méthodes mixtes a été menée (de janvier à juin 2021) pour évaluer la praticité et l'acceptabilité d'un programme d'évaluation par les pairs (PEP) ayant pour but d'évaluer la qualité de la documentation des pharmaciens. Un comité d'évaluation par les pairs composé de 5 pharmaciens a évalué les notes cliniques de leurs pairs à l'aide d'un outil d'évaluation standardisé. La praticité a été déterminée par le temps requis pour les tâches administratives et d'évaluation et les ressources nécessaires pour chaque cycle d'évaluation. L'acceptabilité a été déterminée grâce à des données quantitatives regroupées liées à la pertinence perçue du PEP par les pharmaciens, à la confiance envers leurs pairs et à la satisfaction à l'égard du processus d'évaluation. Les données qualitatives recueillies par le biais de sondages, d'un groupe de discussion et d'entretiens individuels semi-structurés ont permis d'expliquer davantage les résultats. Résultats: Un total de 37,4 heures a été nécessaire pour accomplir les tâches administratives et d'évaluation dans un cycle d'évaluation par les pairs, ce qui respectait le seuil budgété pour des raisons pratiques. L'acceptabilité a également été atteinte puisque plus de 80 % des répondants au sondage trouvaient le PEP pertinent pour leur pratique, avaient confiance en leurs pairs et étaient satisfaits du programme. Les résultats qualitatifs ont montré que les participants trouvaient le PEP instructif et que la rétroaction sous forme de commentaires état préférée à une note émise en pourcentage. Conclusion: Cette étude a démontré qu'il est possible de mettre en place un PEP pour évaluer la qualité de la documentation des pharmaciens. Pour garantir sa réussite, il est essentiel de prédéfinir les objectifs de documentation et les ressources départementales à disposition.

ABSTRACT

Background: We aimed to determine vaccine hesitancy and the main barriers associated with the 2019 novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) vaccination among families of children diagnosed with food/drug/environmental allergies. Methods: Between May and June 2021, we approached 146 families seen at the outpatient allergy clinic at the Montreal Children's Hospital and a community allergy practice were invited to complete an anonymous online survey on COVID-19 and vaccination attitudes and behaviour. Uni and multivariable logistic regressions were compared to estimate factors associated with vaccine hesitancy. Results: Among all patients, 24.1% reported vaccine hesitancy. The large majority of parents (95.2%) believed that vaccines work. The most common barrier to vaccination was fear of adverse side effects (57.0%). One-third of participants (31.5%) reported that a history of food, venom and drug allergy was a contraindication for COVID-19 vaccination. Fifty-nine (60.8%) participants stated that the dissemination of additional information would increase their willingness to be vaccinated. Most (96.9%) parents reported that their children's vaccinations were up to date. Hesitant families were more likely to be parents of children aged 6-10 years, be of Asian descent, report that mRNA vaccines are riskier than traditional vaccines, and report that the vaccine should not be given if the child has a history of allergic reaction to vaccines. Conclusion: Vaccine hesitancy exists mainly among certain ethnic groups and families with young children. Allergies to food, venom and drug allergy are commonly perceived as contraindications for COVID-19 vaccination. Knowledge translation activities addressing parental concerns will help increase vaccination rates.
