Ethics and Project Communication
This QI study was reviewed and deemed to not be human subjects research and
a QI exemption waiver was granted by the University of California San Diego/Rady Children’s Hospital San Diego Institutional Review Board.
The results, successes and barriers we encountered during the project were shared with the oncology providers on a regular basis. Communications included weekly updates on the progress of the initiative, monthly updates to division leadership, and annual reports to hospital leadership.
