Abstract Background A triage approach to routine health assessments was introduced to improve the efficiency of Preventive Child Healthcare (PCH): PCH assistants carry out pre-assessments of all children and send the children with suspected health problems to follow-up assessments conducted by a physician or nurse. Each PCH service use their own protocol (with health themes such as visuals disorders, sleeping- and psychosocial problems) to determine whether a follow-up assessment is needed. In this study a novel standardized triage protocol was developed. The aim was to improve the quality of detection of health problems in primary school children by PCH by investigating the quality of detection of health problems and satisfaction of this novel triage protocol. Methods We included 459 primary school children undergoing routine health assessments in 2 PCH services across the Netherlands. We used parent-reported child problems and PCH registry data. After each assessment PCH professionals reported whether they had identified any problems and carried out any additional actions (e.g., additional assessments, referral). The validity of the protocol is assessed, with problems identified by PCH professionals and performing additional actions as criteria. Results Results showed that the psychometric properties of the novel triage protocol were moderate to good. Sensitivity (true positives) and specificity (true negatives) for the novel triage protocol were 0.73 and 0.62, respectively for the identification of any problems, and were 0.91 and 0.41, respectively, for additional PCH actions. Conclusions The novel triage protocol is a valid tool for the detection of health problem in primary school children by PCH. Few children with health problems were missed. Professionals and parents were very satisfied with the novel protocol. Professionals made specific recommendations about adaptations of the protocol to improve efficiency and facilitate implementation in daily PCH practice. Key messages The novel triage protocol is a valid tool for the detection of health problem in primary school children. For optimal implementation in preventive child healthcare the novel triage protocol needs some minor adaptations.
