ملاحظات روش شناختی برای تحقیقات انتقالی با استفاده از نظرسنجی ملی کودکان با نیازهای مراقبت های ویژه: یک بررسی سیستماتیک از ادبیات

The purpose of this review was to describe methodologic considerations in using the National Survey of Children With Special Health Care Needs (NS-CSHCN) for transition research in terms of variable inclusion and definition of transition outcomes and to provide suggestions for using NS-CSHCN for transition research. A systematic review was conducted. Inclusion criteria included use of NS-CSHCN data and transition as an outcome variable. Fourteen studies were included. Ten (71%) studies evaluated a sample of all CSHCN. Ten (71%) articles used all four variables recommended by the Maternal and Child Health Bureau core outcome on transition. Other variables included patient-centered medical home. The NS-CSHCN provides a rich dataset that can be used in transition research addressing transition preparation from the parent perspective. Using the NS-CSHCN, we recommend analyzing all variables related to the Maternal and Child Health Bureau core outcome for transition, variables related to patient-centered medical home, and further analysis of specific health conditions.
