A Peds 21—Pediatricians Leading Change in Physician Health and Wellness (C0017)Physician wellness is key to the future of pediatrics. By caring for ourselves, we cultivate our ability to care for our patients. Yet burnout is prevalent at all career stages, from trainee to retiree. In fact, nearly half of medical students, residents, and practicing physicians report symptoms of burnout. The Pediatrics for the 21st Century pre-conference program “Pediatricians Leading Change in Physician Health and Wellness” will address the relationship among burnout, job satisfaction, quality care, and patient safety. Attendees will leave the session with the skills to implement wellness strategies for themselves, their practices, and their organizations.

During the limited time pediatricians have for health

maintenance visits, we are asked to address brain

development, school readiness, healthy weight,

socialization, discipline, and high-risk behaviors. There

is, however, a common thread running through all these

topics: children’s electronic media use. Peds 21 attendees

will hear from leaders in the field about the critical role

that media use plays in many of the child health outcomes

about which we care the most. Speakers will cover

emerging data in an area that’s evolving so fast that many

of us feel unable to keep up. Learners will return to their

practices with new tools to help families establish a media

use plan that will reinforce healthy behaviors for life.

While efforts are made to protect children and adolescents from any type of traumatic event and toxic stress, many will still have some type of adverse experience. The Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) Study demonstrates that the more adverse experiences a child has, such as child maltreatment, exposure to interpersonal violence, or parental drug use, the greater the likelihood the child will have physical and mental health issues that can last into adulthood, possibly resulting in premature death. However, if identified and addressed early, the biological impact of toxic stress can be minimized. In this session, pediatricians will learn how to identify and address toxic stress in the lives of their patients and families and access resources to promote resilience, providing children and adolescents an opportunity to live a healthy life.

Proposed Pediatrics for the 21st Century Session Title: Building a Community for All Children: Advocating for Child Health Equity

What is the problem (professional practice gap) that this proposal addresses? One must only look around to see that the US is rapidly becoming a more diverse country. This is most clearly evidenced by our youngest population, which is leading this trend. The U.S. Census Bureau has estimated that around 2020 – the year of this proposed session - more than half of US children will be part of a racial minority or ethnic group. It would be shortsighted, however, to acknowledge this trend without noting decades of evidence show that children from minority backgrounds have poorer health outcomes than their peers, even when controlling for socioeconomic status. An emerging body of evidence has looked more closely at why these disparities persist including social determinants of health, media representation and lived experiences including bias and discrimination. The medical world has simultaneously started to acknowledge that racism can be a form of toxic stress for children and families (https://www.aap.org/en-us/Documents/cocp_racism_child_health.pdf). Scholarly investigation has shown that implicit bias exists even among pediatric providers (http://policylab.chop.edu/article/implicit-bias-pediatric-academic-medicine). Race and ethnicity are among several factors including socioeconomic status, nationality, language, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, and disability that may subject children and youth to experience different forms of bias and discrimination that play a role in the health, development and well-being of children. Recognizing this, in 2017, the Academy identified addressing bias and discrimination as a strategic priority to prepare pediatricians to help families effectively identify, manage, and prevent the physical and emotional outcomes resulting from these experiences. Pediatricians can lend their voices to addressing racism and discrimination, alongside other social determinants of health at the core of the Academy’s work (e.g., poverty). To that end, this session will a) examine current demographics of the pediatric population, taking into account both historical factors influencing care as well as shifting demographics, b) analyze the implications of these factors for pediatric practice, the effects of explicit and implicit bias on both providers and patients, and c) provide practical

strategies that pediatricians can use to improve care and create more inclusive practices for diverse children across racial, ethnic, immigrant, and linguistic backgrounds. It will foster an understanding of the social determinants of child health and their impact on the distribution of health outcomes in populations. Diverse media representation, or lack thereof, will be explored in relation to its implications on children’s development of self-image, societal roles and identification with victims of violence viewed virtually. The session will also provide attendees with first-hand perspectives from families and/or youth on the importance of creating an inclusive and compassionate health care system.

What is the need for the proposal? (ex. new information, research or guideline, common misunderstanding, annual update, etc.): Disparities in child health and well-being Research has documented the existence of significant and persistent child health disparities by race, ethnicity, and immigrant status. Across a range of conditions including infant mortality, obesity, and asthma, children of Black, Native American and some Hispanic and Asian populations fare worse than their white peers. Child health disparities share common roots with, and can be exacerbated by, racial disparities in other areas of child well-being including academic achievement and involvement with the juvenile justice system. Underlying many of these disparities are social and economic challenges including low-income/poverty; community-level factors like inadequate access to quality education, housing, and health care; linguistic and cultural barriers affecting communication in health care and other public settings; historic and ongoing trauma; and racism and discrimination, both overt and implicit, particularly in healthcare and educational settings. Moreover, media has a tremendous impact on children, who engage in an average of 7.5 hours of entertainment media each day. Children of color see themselves less frequently represented in both print and broadcast media, but when they do, it may often be in negative roles that can affect their sense of self and limit their ability to see themselves outside such stereotypes. In order to improve the health and life trajectories of the U.S. child population, it is critical for pediatricians to understand the determinants of these disparities, and ways to help address them in their practices and communities. This session also coincides with the conclusion of HP2020 and the presumed commencement of HP2030. This creates the opportune time to consider progress that has been made towards key child health measures intended to minimize disparities and to identify strategies for pediatricians to make continued advancements towards health equity for children in the next decade. Demographic change in the United States Pediatricians need up to date information and strategies that will help improve care for America’s diverse child population. Child demographics have significantly changed over the past 30 years, and the nation’s children are increasingly from Hispanic, Black, and Asian backgrounds. Since 2011, the majority of children born in the U.S. were non-white. The AAP noted that one in four children in the US, or 18.4 million, live in an immigrant family. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, in 2014, 24 percent of children were Hispanic; 14 percent were Black, non-Hispanic; 5 percent were Asian, non-Hispanic; and 5 percent were non-Hispanic-All other races. The Hispanic population has nearly tripled from 9% in 1980, to 24% in 2014. In 2012, Asians became the fastest growing racial group in the country. (Racial and Ethnic Composition of the Child Population, Child Trends Data Bank 2015)


How did you determine the problem? (ex. peer-reviewed article, patient question or outcome, statistic or report, etc.): Children from immigrant and minority backgrounds face unprecedented threats with proposed cuts to federal and state health, educational and nutritional programs as well as executive orders that directly impact their families, threatening to destabilize their safety net. Damaging rhetoric faced by these children both in person and through media have disrupted their sense of safety and security. AAP leadership has responded swiftly to a number of these threats with nonpartisan statements exhorting officials to protect children and to act in their best interest. Also, in April of this year, the Academy published its Diversity and Inclusion statement reaffirming pursuit of a “vision [that] has included treasuring the uniqueness of each child and fostering a profession, health care system, and communities that celebrate all aspects of the diversity of each child and family.” This was supported by a commentary from several Academy leaders that acknowledged the particularly “perilous times for our nation’s children who face increasing insecurity and challenges as they strive to develop and grow” while also stating that “promoting diversity, fostering inclusion, and advancing health equity for all” are grounded as part of a larger agenda for our work. This session will support this agenda. COCP, PSOMHEI, COCM and the Task Force on Addressing Bias and Discrimination have identified key areas of focus and content experts for this session based on member knowledge and expertise. This session has also been informed by knowledge gained from extensive background research from development of COCP policy statements on poverty and child health, immigrant child health, and home visiting. In preparation for its founding, the Provisional Section on Minority Health Equity and Inclusion conducted a survey of 463 AAP members who identified many of the issues being addressed in this session as their top interests and concerns for the Section. Since that time, the Section has grown to over 800 members among whom these issues continue to be of importance. Faculty will address how pediatricians can address these social determinants in the context of medical homes (through screening and team-based care) and neighborhoods (through community partnerships). The session will also provide practical guidance such as how to effectively communicate and engage with patients and families of different racial, cultural, and linguistic backgrounds, with a focus on racism and implicit bias and culturally and linguistically competent care. Pediatricians can help mitigate negative effects on children by increasing awareness of toxic effects of racism and xenophobia on children, managing their own implicit bias, connecting families with resources and advocating for children’s equity on multiple levels.

Learning objectives (answer the question “At the conclusion of Peds21, participants should be able to…): 1. Understand the changing demographics of the U.S. child population and the implications for pediatric practice 2. Recognize the prevalence of child health disparities and their relationship to social determinants of health 3. Learn strategies for addressing social determinants in the medical home, by systematically screening for

disparities and needs in clinic panels and neighborhoods, connecting families with services, and by developing school and community partnerships.

4. Recognize the impact of racism and discrimination on child health, including the impact of implicit bias and structural racism

5. Learn strategies to improve trust and engagement with diverse families in health care settings through workforce diversity and more effective communication.


6. Understand the role of media in perpetuating racism and implicit bias, and ways to help parents to mitigate the health effects of racism by building on cultural strengths

7. Learn practical ways of addressing linguistic and cultural barriers in pediatric practices through quality interpretation, cultural brokering, and patient navigation to help access community and subspecialty services

Session Description (describe the session in 150 words or less): This session will examine current demographics of the pediatric population, taking into account both historical factors influencing care as well as shifting demographics; analyze the implications of these factors for pediatric practice; describe the effects of implicit bias on both providers and patients; and provide practical strategies that pediatricians can use to improve care for diverse children. It will foster an understanding of the social determinants of child health in the medical home, communities, and their outcomes. Diverse media representation, or lack thereof, will be explored in relation to its implications on children’s development of self-image and societal roles. The session will also allow attendees to apply the skills they learn to create more inclusive practices and communities.
