Research Article: Reporting of social determinants of health in randomized controlled trials conducted in the pediatric intensive care unit

Date Published: 2024-02-23

Abstract:
Introduction: The influence of social determinants of health (SDOH) on access to care and outcomes for critically ill children remains an understudied area with a paucity of high-quality data. Recent publications have highlighted the importance of incorporating SDOH considerations into research but the frequency with which this occurs in pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) research is unclear. Our objective was to determine the frequency and categories of SDOH variables reported and how these variables were defined in published PICU randomized controlled trials (RCTs).
