To develop and test patient-reported experience measures (PREMs) for children and young people in a specialist paediatric hospital setting. ⋯ The new PREMs will provide children and young people receiving care in specialist paediatric hospitals with the opportunity to provide feedback on their experience. Sustainability and ensuring that feedback results in improvements need to be addressed in future work.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Neonatal resuscitation using a laryngeal mask airway: a randomised trial in Uganda.
Mortality rates from birth asphyxia in low-income countries remain high. Face mask ventilation (FMV) performed by midwives is the usual method of resuscitating neonates in such settings but may not always be effective. The i-gel is a cuffless laryngeal mask airway (LMA) that could enhance neonatal resuscitation performance. We aimed to compare LMA and face mask (FM) during neonatal resuscitation in a low-resource setting. ⋯ This trial was registered in https://clinicaltrials.gov, with registration number NCT02042118.
