Exomes in Paediatrics: Co‐Design and Implementation of Interventions to Support Paediatricians to Provide Genomic Care
The interventions helped increase paediatrician confidence and skills, highlighting the importance of combining knowledge transfer with experiential learning to support comprehensive practice change. These results offer a foundation for ongoing efforts to support wider, more equitable use of genomic tests. Long-term evaluation would further assess the impact on paediatrician practice. The study demonstrates the value of co-designed, multi-modal interventions in addressing complex practice changes in healthcare.
