TL;DR: By establishing a common nomenclature and descriptions for 11 methods, this review lays the foundation for investigators to systematically study the effectiveness and efficiency of ambulatory-focused clinical teaching methods both within and across specialties.

TL;DR: Pediatricians in all venues must have a working knowledge of patient-safety language, advocate for best practices that attend to risks that are unique to children, identify and support a culture of safety, and lead efforts to eliminate avoidable harm in any setting in which medical care is rendered to children.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated seven observation variables (level of activity, level of alertness, respiratory status/effort, peripheral perfusion, muscle tone, affect, feeding pattern) which qualify patient clinical appearance in order to determine reliability in distinguishing the infectious outcome of 233 febrile infants ages 0 to 8 weeks.

TL;DR: Stepwise discriminant analysis identified 3 variables that best distinguished outcome: affect; respiratory status/effort; and peripheral perfusion, which constituted the Young Infant Observation Scale.
