| Abstract: | Broad changes in pediatric surgical care delivery are limited by the rarity of pediatric surgical diseases and the geographic dispersion of pediatric surgical care across different hospital types. Pediatric surgical collaboratives and consortiums can provide the patient sample size, research resources, and infrastructure to advance clinical care for children with who require surgery. Additionally, collaboratives can bring together experts and exemplar institutions to overcome barriers to pediatric surgical research to advance quality surgical care. Despite challenges to collaboration, many successful pediatric surgical collaboratives emerged in the last decade and continue to push the field forward towards high-quality, evidence-based care and improved outcomes. This review will discuss the need for continued research and quality improvement collaboratives in pediatric surgery, identify challenges faced when building collaboratives, and introduce future directions to expand impact. |
