Objective:   To determine whether implementation of a metabolic monitoring training program (MMTP) in an urban community-based setting improved monitoring in children treated with second-generation antipsychotics (SGAs) and changed prescription rates of SGAs to children.Method:   The MMTP was implemented in the Vancouver Coastal Health Child and Youth Mental Health Teams (CYMHTs) on January 1, 2009. A retrospective review of paper charts and electronic records for children seen at the CYMHTs from September 1, 2007, to May 1, 2010, was performed to collect the following data: age, sex, foster care, immigrant status, Axis I diagnosis, and medications. In SGA-treated children, anthropometric measurements and blood work completed at baseline and 3, 6, and 12 months were also collected.Results:   Among the 1114 children seen pre-MMTP and 1262 children seen post-MMTP implementation, 174 (15.4%) and 81 (6.4%), respectively, were SGA-treated ( P &lt; 0.001). Among the SGA-treated children seen at the CYMHTs after MMTP implementation, 38.3% had a copy of the MMTP in their paper chart. Metabolic monitoring increased by up to 40% at baseline ( P &lt; 0.01), 20% at 3 ( P &lt; 0.01) and 6 months ( P &lt; 0.01), and 18% at 12 months after MMTP implementation.Conclusions:   Implementation of an MMTP was associated with significantly improved monitoring rates of anthropometric and blood work parameters at baseline and the 3- and 6-month time points, with a trend for improvement at the 12-month time point, in SGA-treated children cared for in urban community mental health clinics. In addition, a 56% decrease in SGA prescriptions was observed following MMTP implementation in this population.
