Experiences of Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Patients Boarding in the Emergency Department from Staff Perspectives: Patient Journey Mapping

Jennifer C. Wolff et al.

Summary: In the past decade, healthcare providers have faced an increasing crisis in boarding pediatric patients awaiting psychiatric treatment in emergency departments. COVID-19 has worsened this crisis, leading to emergency departments acting as crisis units. Journey mapping is a valuable methodology for understanding the strengths and challenges in patient care workflows, such as boarding and emergency psychiatric care.

The effect of increased emergency department demand on throughput times and disposition status for pediatric psychiatric patients

Danielle Brathwaite et al.

Summary: This study used electronic medical record data from eight North Carolina EDs to examine the impact of ED demand on throughput times and discharge disposition for pediatric psychiatric patients. The results showed that most measures of ED demand had minimal effects on throughput measures, but a increase in the proportion of non-psychiatric pediatric visits led to longer boarding times at community sites, and an increase in the proportion of pediatric psychiatric visits resulted in longer length of stay at the academic site. Patient-level factors played a stronger role in predicting discharge disposition than ED demand.

Bonnie T. Zima et al.

Summary: This study examined the changes in child emergency department (ED) discharges and hospitalizations for primary general medical (GM) and primary psychiatric disorders before and after COVID-19-related school closures. The study found that suicide attempts or self-injury and depressive disorders were the main drivers of increased acute mental health care encounters. The number of ED discharges and hospitalizations for suicide attempts or self-injury increased after the school closures.

Association of Social Determinants of Health and Vaccinations With Child Mental Health During the COVID-19 Pandemic in the US

Yunyu Xiao et al.

Summary: This study aimed to assess the association between trajectories of child mental health and social determinants of health (SDoH) at individual and structural levels, as well as vaccination eligibility/rates. The study found that children from socioeconomically disadvantaged backgrounds were disproportionately affected in terms of mental health during the COVID-19 pandemic. Factors such as age, gender, race, and family structure were related to the levels of stress, worry, and sadness experienced by children.

Summary: The study shows a significant decrease in emergency department visits during the COVID-19 pandemic, with patients presenting with more serious illnesses, possibly due to delays in seeking care. Early increase in hospitalizations and relative risk for thirty-day mortality were also observed, indicating potential consequences of avoidance or delay in seeking emergency care.

Emergency Department Encounters Among Youth With Suicidal Thoughts or Behaviors During the COVID-19 Pandemic

Kathryn K. Ridout et al.

Summary: A study found that the number of suicide-related ED encounters among youth decreased in 2020 compared to 2019 during the COVID-19 pandemic, likely due to shelter-in-place orders, before returning to 2019 levels. However, a higher number of female youth, youth with no psychiatric history, and youth with psychiatric diagnoses at the time of the ED encounter presented for suicide-related concerns during the pandemic, indicating potential vulnerability and need for further interventions. Adjustments in care may be necessary to accommodate these groups during crises.
