Evidence-Based Pediatric Care
At Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, we practice evidence-based pediatric care. This means that the care and treatment we provide to our patients and families is based on the best scientific information and medical practices.
Practicing evidenced-based care ensures:
- Unnecessary tests or procedures are not performed
- Patients receive more consistent, more reliable care
- Shorter lengths of stay in the hospital
- Patients experience the best possible outcomes
Evidence-Based Guidelines for Health Care Professionals
To help support community pediatricians, Cincinnati Children's has developed some evidence-based guidelines for many pediatric illnesses. These guidelines are designed to keep health care professionals up to date, while also helping to improve child health.
