abstract="Child death review teams (CDRTs) focus on the prevention of child deaths, but a comprehensive understanding of their activities is lacking. This exploratory study addressed this gap through a qualitative analysis of reported CDRT activities using the &quot;spectrum of prevention&quot; framework. We collected state-level CDRT reports published 2006-2015, recorded their activities (n = 193), and coded them using the &quot;spectrum of prevention&quot; framework. The highest percentage (64.2%) of activities were categorized under &quot;fostering coalitions and networks.&quot; We recommend that CDRTs increase their reporting of activities so others can better understand their potential impact on preventing child deaths.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
