Participate in Research!ImproveCareNow’s success is remarkable — arguably the most effective improvement science initiative in pediatric health care today. Patients treated at the best-performing hospitals have a remission rate of more than 80 percent. Ten years ago, it was about 55 percent. Satisfactory growth occurs in 93 percent of children, and 96 percent are not taking side-effect-producing steroid medications — both major improvements.
