Our Capstone project focused on addressing practice variation in the management of paediatric trauma patients at Ontario general EDs, to ensure that optimal care is received regardless of geographical location. In our journey, we have identified that a lack of human and physical resources, communication issues, complicated transfer processes and knowledge gaps contribute to practice variation for pediatric trauma management in Ontario. We developed a rigorous research protocol to assess the needs, pertaining to each of these categories, for providers treating paediatric trauma patients at general EDs in Ontario. In addition, the needs assessment will give insight into the knowledge transfer needs and preferences of these health care providers. This will help confirm the pertinence of implementing the PedsPac, a co-created knowledge transfer tool we identified, at Ontario general EDs.

Translational Research (TR)
Translation in the health sciences involves a systematic and strategic approach to developing novel tools, mechanisms, services, drugs, techniques, policies, and protocols that address the needs of people and populations. TR consists of methods of inquiry, best-practices, and frameworks to optimize the successful design, development, implementation, testing, and dissemination of innovation in healthcare.
Master of Health Science (MHSc) in Translational Research
is a project-based graduate degree intended for students from diverse backgrounds who aspire to apply knowledge for innovation in healthcare. Students explore strategies, competencies and creative problem-solving approaches indispensable for innovating people-centered processes, procedures, products and services.
Structure:
The two-year competency focused degree employs collaborative and self-directed “learning by doing” to challenge students to think differently.
Our curriculum is a combination of in-class seminars, workshops and projects that provides direction for broader student initiatives as part of their own self-directed learning in the community. Seminars are designed as a rallying point for discussions, peer learning and facilitation as students network and engage in real-world problems through their co-curricular activities and professional activities.
Students learn…
through real-world challenges, mentorship, networking, and personal development plans, students gain experience, expertise, and practical insights into processes, regulatory frameworks, translational networks and strategies applicable to a range of careers across medicine, health and care.
