Satisfaction With Multidisciplinary Team Structure and Function in a Pediatric Outpatient Clinic

In brief

This study examines healthcare provider satisfaction with multidisciplinary team structure and function in a pediatric spina bifida outpatient clinic. Researchers assess team member perceptions and identify systemic barriers that may hinder optimal MDT performance in complex pediatric care settings.

• Multidisciplinary teams (MDTs) can improve patient outcomes, reduce physician burnout, and decrease hospital costs in complex pediatric care.
• Systemic barriers to optimizing pediatric MDTs remain poorly understood and require further investigation.
• Provider satisfaction and perception are critical metrics for evaluating MDT structure and function in specialty clinics like spina bifida care.
