NCT ID NCT05407129
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new way for families of hospitalized children to report safety concerns using a mobile tool (email, text, or QR code). The goal is to catch errors and problems that hospital staff often miss, especially for families who speak languages other than English. About 656 participants will use the tool, and researchers will compare what families report to what staff report through usual channels.
