Summary
Parents found real-time access to their child's clinical notes beneficial, improving communication and knowledge, but also noted challenges. Strategies for optimizing this patient-centered care approach were identified.
Area of Science:
- Pediatric Healthcare
- Health Informatics
- Patient Engagement
Background:
- Federal mandates require hospitals to provide free online access to physician clinical notes.
- Understanding parent perceptions of real-time note access is crucial for implementation.
Purpose of the Study:
- Identify parent perceptions of benefits and challenges of real-time clinical note access during pediatric hospitalization.
- Determine strategies to optimize bedside note-sharing.
Main Methods:
- Qualitative study involving parents of children under 12 admitted to a pediatric hospitalist service.
- Parents accessed notes via bedside tablet; semi-structured interviews were conducted upon discharge.
- Thematic analysis of transcribed interviews was performed by multiple researchers.
Main Results:
- Parents reported 6 benefits: improved understanding of care plans, enhanced communication, empowerment, autonomy, and positive emotions.
- Challenges included confusion, hindered communication, note content issues, and negative emotions.
- Parents recommended preemptive communication, optimized release processes, parent-friendly templates, and informational resources.
Conclusions:
- Findings offer a framework for implementing note-sharing with parents during hospitalization.
- Results are vital for hospitals complying with regulations and for research on information transparency in inpatient settings.

Source-oriented records, or SOR, are medical record-keeping organized by the data source. The SOR system was first developed in the mid-1900s to organize the growing patient data in hospitals and other healthcare facilities.
In an SOR, each discipline involved in patient care maintains a separate medical record section. This record-keeping method enables easy tracking of patient progress and ensures healthcare staff have access to up-to-date information.
Key Attributes include the following:
