Biography
Dr. Coon is a professor of pediatrics at Seattle Children's Hospital, where he provides inpatient care to hospitalized children and leads the Pragmatic Intervention Trials for Children Hospitalized With Common Conditions (PITCH) Lab. He and his team study medical interventions that are in widespread, real-world use, but have not been evaluated by rigorous research methods. Dr. Coon serves as a principal investigator for multiple pragmatic clinical trials involving children hospitalized with common conditions. He was a principal investigator for the Bronchiolitis Follow-Up Intervention Trial (BeneFIT), a multicenter RCT demonstrating that PRN follow-up is safe and effective for children hospitalized with bronchiolitis, a leading cause of hospitalization. Dr. Coon is currently leading the Follow-Up Automatically vs. As-Needed Comparison (FAAN-C or “fancy”) trial. FAAN-C is a nationwide 14-hospital randomized trial that builds on BeneFIT. FAAN-C is comparing automatic vs. PRN follow-up for children hospitalized with other common infections, including pneumonia; skin and soft tissue infection; UTI; and gastroenteritis. Dr. Coon is also a principal investigator for the I-DECIDE Trial, which compares two different implementation strategies designed to increase as-needed post-hospitalization follow-up for children hospitalized with bronchiolitis.
