CHILDS Research Group: applied child health systems and policy research
Childhood is the optimal time for establishing good health and preventing illness to enable children to reach their maximal potential for life-long benefit. Child health in the UK is not as good as it could be - or should be. Child survival is the ultimate measure for how well children fare. Infant mortality is a marker of societal health used globally. After decades of reductions year on year, infant mortality is rising and is highest among families living in poverty. Child survival in the UK is worse than other European and high-income countries, and the gaps are widening. Health and care systems for children are the universal lens through which social, economic, environmental, commercial, and political determinants of health are experienced. Health and social care systems are also determinants of health and well-being from prevention to early intervention and care, rehabilitation, and palliation. The CHILDS research group is dedicated to improving outcomes for child health, by working at the intersection of paediatrics, public health, health systems, and policy.
Health systems and policy need to evolve to meet needs, ensuring better prevention and early intervention, precision health and integrated care models, joined-up physical and mental healthcare, and tailored care for children with medical complexity. There are intergenerational effects associated with poor child health outcomes, so a life-course approach to prevention and care is needed. Adverse childhood experiences are common and can synergise to worsen outcomes when they cluster together. These complex problems require transdisciplinary approaches to secure effective solutions. However, there is a lack of high-quality evidence about healthcare and health systems interventions, with additional challenges in translation, implementation, and scale-up into frontline care and policy.
The CHILDS research group strategy focuses on health system strengthening by investigating the causes of poor health and healthcare outcomes for children and applying knowledge to design and test interventions including innovative healthcare pathways and health systems interventions to improve outcomes and enhance equity. CHILDS conducts research to improve health, for each child, and for all children. Our group is grounded in public health sciences and uses quantitative and qualitative methods for theoretically underpinned research into health systems and healthcare. Our mixed methods research includes evidence synthesis, clinical and hybrid trials of healthcare models and complex interventions, with nested qualitative and process studies.
CHILDS brings together academics, researchers, clinicians, service users and community groups across King’s Faculties of Life Sciences and Medicine, Florence Nightingale Faculty of Nursing, Midwifery and Palliative Care, Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology, and Neuroscience, Faculty of Social Sciences and Public Policy, and King’s Health Partners including Evelina London Children’s Hospital and King’s College Hospital. We collaborate nationally, for example within the NIHR Applied Research Collaboration network, and internationally with child health systems researchers in Australia, and the US, and with WHO Europe.
Methods
Our strategy currently focuses on three areas: health systems and services for children with complex needs and disabilities, healthcare for children with long-term conditions, and child population health. Cross-cutting themes include experimental health systems strengthening studies, population health medicine in healthcare, and system-level evaluation with pragmatic trials. Our group is involved in research infrastructure grants across health and social care and public health.

Projects

TEAMCare: Technology Enhanced integrAted asthMa Care
This NIHR funded research study is a randomised control trial of technology aiming to improve outcomes among children with asthma. The project is aiming to improve health for children with asthma by testing a new type of more joined-up care that is about the whole child and not just the disease and combining it with special technologies for asthma management. We think the new type of care is already helping children, but we could do even better by adding new ways of helping children and families to keep track of asthma symptoms and medications using apps. By combining the new type of integrated care with technology, we want to help children and families and their doctors and nurses take better care of asthma together, to help keep asthma under control between visits to the doctor or nurse, and to improve asthma care so much that children can avoid needing emergency care. As part of an RCT, we will test two types of asthma technology. We will measure how often children need emergency care for asthma, their health, children and parents' mental health and wellbeing, how often children need healthcare and medicines for asthma, and whether children and their parents or carers miss school or work because of asthma, costs, and how easy the technologies are to use. The evidence from our project should help improve health for children with asthma.
eLIXIR (Born in South London) Data-Linkage
This project uses opt-out consent to collect routine maternity and neonatal clinical patient data (GSTT and KCH NHS Trusts), mental health data from the SLaM CRIS platform, and primary care data from the LDN platform, for those registered with a GP in Lambeth. The project holds approval to also link with emergency and admissions data (HES), national fertility data (HFEA), and immunisation records (NIMS), as well as expanding primary care data to other boroughs in South London, namely: Southwark, Lewisham, and Bromley; the process to link these new data sources is currently ongoing. At present, eLIXIR holds over 40,000 records. All records are deidentified, including masking of identifying information in open-text fields and use of pseudonymised identifiers. The data refresh process occurs every 6 months, and each update includes all retrospective data since conception of the cohort (October 2018), thus building a dynamic cohort.

NIHR Applied Research Collaboration (ARC) South London: Children and Young People Theme
The ARC South London children and young people theme aims to improve the lives of children and young people locally, generate evidence for how this can be done nationally and internationally and integrate services and experiences. Our work is focused on improving the health and social care system for children and young people who have complex needs and multiple health problems. This is split into two projects (1) INCLUDE: ImproviNg Care for chiLdren with complex needs and DisabilitiEs. INCLUDE will co-develop and test a novel integrated care model, and aims to improve health outcomes, care quality and system sustainability. (2) INSPIRE: Identify family Needs for Support, Prevention, & rIsk Reduction. INSPIRE will co-develop a screening/early identification tool, and tailored needs-based prevention and support. This project aims to improve school readiness, and outcomes among children who are exposed to multiple adverse experiences.
OveRcoming Adverse ChiLdhood Experiences (ORACLE)
ORACLE was funded by the National Institute for Health Research using funds from the Department of Health and Social Care and aims to improve outcomes for children and young people experiencing parental mental health problems, substance misuse, domestic violence and abuse, and associated adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and risks, through prevention and improved support. This mixed-methods study is a collaboration between three universities and is led by PIs Ingrid Wolfe (KCL) and Eileen Kaner (University of Newcastle), with a University of Liverpool team lead by David Taylor-Robinson. ORACLE has two phases, the first focuses on improving understanding of risks, experiences, needs, and outcomes, and the current state of interventions. The second phase focuses on designing a new intervention to improve outcomes for children, young people, and families. Working with the NCB and King’s Policy Institute, ORACLE looks to inform policy in health, social care, education, and criminal justice sectors.

Children & Young People's Health Partnership (CYPHP)
CYPHP was a Guy’s and St Thomas’s Charity funded cluster-randomised control trial aiming to produce: (1) an evidence‐based, clinically effective and cost effective, comprehensive day-to-day healthcare model for children and young people that meets current and evolving health needs; (2) a learning healthcare system so that continuous improvement becomes part of everyday practice; and (3) rigorous evaluation that builds the evidence base for improving children's healthcare and strengthening health systems. It was unique in the UK and Europe in its cross-organisational, system-wide, transformative, and academically rigorous approach to improving child health services. The model of care was designed to deliver better health, better healthcare outcomes, and better value for children and young people (CYP). CYPHP partners included local CYP and families; Lambeth and Southwark CCGs, Councils, and GP Federations; King’s College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, Evelina London Children’s Healthcare, and King’s College London.

Child’s Life Course Journey in Data
This was an ESRC funded project, aiming to produce a child’s life course map in data, with practical benefits for clinicians, academics, and policy makers to assist them in translating data to benefits for health and wellbeing. We will produce a clear simple infographic describing a life course journey in data from pregnancy through 18 years, mapping all the data points and sources available for children, young people, adults. The infographic will be embedded with links to data sources. This project also provides an opportunity to collaborate with colleagues in Australia, New Zealand, and Sweden to produce data maps with the potential to support comparative studies.

Projects

TEAMCare: Technology Enhanced integrAted asthMa Care
This NIHR funded research study is a randomised control trial of technology aiming to improve outcomes among children with asthma. The project is aiming to improve health for children with asthma by testing a new type of more joined-up care that is about the whole child and not just the disease and combining it with special technologies for asthma management. We think the new type of care is already helping children, but we could do even better by adding new ways of helping children and families to keep track of asthma symptoms and medications using apps. By combining the new type of integrated care with technology, we want to help children and families and their doctors and nurses take better care of asthma together, to help keep asthma under control between visits to the doctor or nurse, and to improve asthma care so much that children can avoid needing emergency care. As part of an RCT, we will test two types of asthma technology. We will measure how often children need emergency care for asthma, their health, children and parents' mental health and wellbeing, how often children need healthcare and medicines for asthma, and whether children and their parents or carers miss school or work because of asthma, costs, and how easy the technologies are to use. The evidence from our project should help improve health for children with asthma.
eLIXIR (Born in South London) Data-Linkage
This project uses opt-out consent to collect routine maternity and neonatal clinical patient data (GSTT and KCH NHS Trusts), mental health data from the SLaM CRIS platform, and primary care data from the LDN platform, for those registered with a GP in Lambeth. The project holds approval to also link with emergency and admissions data (HES), national fertility data (HFEA), and immunisation records (NIMS), as well as expanding primary care data to other boroughs in South London, namely: Southwark, Lewisham, and Bromley; the process to link these new data sources is currently ongoing. At present, eLIXIR holds over 40,000 records. All records are deidentified, including masking of identifying information in open-text fields and use of pseudonymised identifiers. The data refresh process occurs every 6 months, and each update includes all retrospective data since conception of the cohort (October 2018), thus building a dynamic cohort.

NIHR Applied Research Collaboration (ARC) South London: Children and Young People Theme
The ARC South London children and young people theme aims to improve the lives of children and young people locally, generate evidence for how this can be done nationally and internationally and integrate services and experiences. Our work is focused on improving the health and social care system for children and young people who have complex needs and multiple health problems. This is split into two projects (1) INCLUDE: ImproviNg Care for chiLdren with complex needs and DisabilitiEs. INCLUDE will co-develop and test a novel integrated care model, and aims to improve health outcomes, care quality and system sustainability. (2) INSPIRE: Identify family Needs for Support, Prevention, & rIsk Reduction. INSPIRE will co-develop a screening/early identification tool, and tailored needs-based prevention and support. This project aims to improve school readiness, and outcomes among children who are exposed to multiple adverse experiences.
OveRcoming Adverse ChiLdhood Experiences (ORACLE)
ORACLE was funded by the National Institute for Health Research using funds from the Department of Health and Social Care and aims to improve outcomes for children and young people experiencing parental mental health problems, substance misuse, domestic violence and abuse, and associated adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and risks, through prevention and improved support. This mixed-methods study is a collaboration between three universities and is led by PIs Ingrid Wolfe (KCL) and Eileen Kaner (University of Newcastle), with a University of Liverpool team lead by David Taylor-Robinson. ORACLE has two phases, the first focuses on improving understanding of risks, experiences, needs, and outcomes, and the current state of interventions. The second phase focuses on designing a new intervention to improve outcomes for children, young people, and families. Working with the NCB and King’s Policy Institute, ORACLE looks to inform policy in health, social care, education, and criminal justice sectors.

Children & Young People's Health Partnership (CYPHP)
CYPHP was a Guy’s and St Thomas’s Charity funded cluster-randomised control trial aiming to produce: (1) an evidence‐based, clinically effective and cost effective, comprehensive day-to-day healthcare model for children and young people that meets current and evolving health needs; (2) a learning healthcare system so that continuous improvement becomes part of everyday practice; and (3) rigorous evaluation that builds the evidence base for improving children's healthcare and strengthening health systems. It was unique in the UK and Europe in its cross-organisational, system-wide, transformative, and academically rigorous approach to improving child health services. The model of care was designed to deliver better health, better healthcare outcomes, and better value for children and young people (CYP). CYPHP partners included local CYP and families; Lambeth and Southwark CCGs, Councils, and GP Federations; King’s College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, Evelina London Children’s Healthcare, and King’s College London.

Child’s Life Course Journey in Data
This was an ESRC funded project, aiming to produce a child’s life course map in data, with practical benefits for clinicians, academics, and policy makers to assist them in translating data to benefits for health and wellbeing. We will produce a clear simple infographic describing a life course journey in data from pregnancy through 18 years, mapping all the data points and sources available for children, young people, adults. The infographic will be embedded with links to data sources. This project also provides an opportunity to collaborate with colleagues in Australia, New Zealand, and Sweden to produce data maps with the potential to support comparative studies.
