Charting the course of pediatric nursing research: the SPN Delphi study.

In order to inform the care of children at this pivotal time in the history of healthcare, the Society of Pediatric Nurses (SPN) sought to identify priorities for nursing research and key challenges facing pediatric nursing. A three round Delphi study was conducted electronically with SPN members. The top 10 priorities and challenges were identified and will serve as a valuable guide for pediatric nursing practice, education, policy and administration over the coming decade.
