Pediatric Intensive Care Provider Attitudes About Children with Medical Complexity and Neurologic Impairment: A Qualitative Study by Elizabeth J. Bleed, Leonardo Barrera, Mickayla Jones, Seema K. Shah, Megan Crowley-Matoka, Carolyn C. Foster

“…Analysis was conducted and relevant themes were identified using the analytic technique of thematic analysis. Rigor was assured by using two coders. (4) Results: Four main themes were identified: (i) providers view CMC with NI as a distinct population of growing importance; (ii) CMC with NI have care needs that challenge traditional perceptions of PICU practice; (iii) PICU providers expressed ambivalence towards caring for CMC with NI; and (iv) some PICU providers have developed adaptive strategies. (5) Conclusions: This population challenges the typical notion of what pediatric critical care represents. …”
