Depression Screening of Adolescents With Diabetes: 5-Years of Implementation and Outcomes.

As part of a quality improvement (QI) initiative, Cincinnati Children's Hospital Diabetes Center established a model of reliable, feasible, routine depression screening in a subspecialty clinic for adolescents with diabetes.1 On the occasion of the special section of the journal focusing on screening for, detection of, and treatment of depression in diverse settings, the purpose of this correspondence is to describe the evolution of an in-clinic, pragmatic approach to depression and suicidal ideation (SI) screening, and to evaluate depression screening scores and glycemic control across age groups over time.
