Children with complex chronic conditions (CCCs) and their families deserve high-quality pediatric palliative care (PPC) throughout their illness trajectory, including at end of life (EOL). Standard EOL quality measures (QM) have only recently been proposed, require surveys and/or manual chart review, and focus on children with cancer. Therefore, we aimed to develop expert-endorsed, hospital-based, primary PPC quality measures for EOL care for all children with CCCs that could be automatically abstracted from the electronic health record (EHR).
