What do children, young people and families think? I am worried about what will happen next year when I am too old for the children s clinic I want to know that my GP is experienced in caring for children Make sure the school can look after my son when he has an asthma attack I need rapid access to someone I can talk to when I feel depressed We need easier access to healthcare Services are not joined up 6

Background Information (1 of 2) A Paediatric Assessment Unit (PAU) is a facility within which, children with acute illnesses, injuries or other urgent referrals (from GPs, Community Nursing teams, Walk-in Centres (WICs), NHS Direct (NHSD) and Emergency Departments) can be assessed, investigated, observed and treated without recourse to inpatient areas. For example: Paediatric Short Stay (PSS), Paediatric Assessment Units (PAUs) and Paediatric Short Stay Assessment Units (PSSAU). We are looking at the PAU provision across London which takes acute admissions for a maximum period of 24hrs. This unit is separate to the paediatric day unit (although we recognise in some hospitals these may be combined). 11
Background Information (2 of 2) The RCPCH proposed the development of PAUs in the paediatric emergency pathway, to allow discharge for those who were improving after initial treatment (i.e. asthma, croup, gastroenteritis) or not deteriorating (i.e. fever in infant). Despite the widespread adoption of and investment in PAUs across the UK, their impact has been poorly evaluated. 12

What do we know about the impact of PAUs? Ogilvie (2005). Hospital based alternatives to acute paediatric admission: a systematic review. ADC 90: 138-42 25 studies included PAU 40% of children attending acute assessment units in paediatric departments, and over 60% of those attending acute assessment units in A&E departments, do not require inpatient admission. 1-7% returned within 72 hours of discharge Effect on inpatient admissions 10-47% reductions in inpatient admissions after opening a PAU Reduced costs due to fewer admissions
What do we know about the impact of PAUs? Thompson Coon et al (2012). Interventions to reduce acute paediatric hospital admissions: a systematic review. Archives of Disease in Childhood; 97(4): 304-311 4 papers on effects of a short-stay assessment unit. Findings from each study: 77% of children admitted after presenting with acute gastroenteritis in where no PAU versus 42% in PAU 31% admitted for an overnight stay in the year prior to the opening of the PAU versus 24% in the year after i.e. reductions of ~ 23 to 45% in admission rates Perceptions Parents and staff preferred the PAU to traditional A&E
