OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Describe the community of Norther Dauphin County, PA and increase awareness of this community’s health related needs. Establish partnerships between Penn State faculty and Northern Dauphin County community-based organizations to develop an optimal approach to address identified health related needs. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Northern Dauphin is located in the rural Northern Tier of Dauphin County, PA and has roughly 30,000 residents within 272 square miles. Of those residents, approximately 1 in 4 families live below the poverty level. Although over 6,000 residents receive Medical Assistance (MA), only one local provider accepts MA covered patients. Residents have limited access to health care due to the rurality of the area when paired with a lack of public transportation. The Penn State Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CTSI) Community Engaged Research Core (CERC) has partnered with Northern Dauphin County community- based organizations to explore the needs of community members and how partnerships with Penn State Faculty could help to address the community needs. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: A Community Advisory Board (CAB) of leaders (e.g., school officials, business owners) was created to identify community needs. After an initial workshop with the CAB, an assessment was created and distributed to the larger community to identify the top community health needs. Details from the assessment were then used to prioritize the themes for the Community Driven Research Day (CDRD). The CERC team identified Penn State University faculty with research interests related to these prioritized themes. The faculty identified and community leaders were then invited to the CDRD. The agenda for the event included an introduction to Community Engaged Research, a presentation from a researcher and community partner working together, round table discussions based on the themes selected, and an overview of pilot grants. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: The CDRD will facilitate partnerships between the Penn State faculty and local community leaders to help effectively move forward addressing the community’s health needs. The PSU CTSI will offer pilot grants to formalize and strengthen these partnerships and conduct community engaged research initiatives to discover optimal ways to address them.

Access to an academic clinical research center (CRC) in health professional shortage areas (HPSA) can help address healthcare disparities and increase research accessibility and enrollment. Here we describe the development of a community-centered CRC in the underserved area of Sunset Park, Brooklyn, New York, centered within a larger academic health network and the evaluation of its outcomes within the first two years. In addition to resources and space, establishment of the CRC required a culturally competent and multilingual team of healthcare professionals and researchers and buy-in from the community. Between 1/2022 and 12/2023, the CRC opened 21 new trials (10 interventional and 11 noninterventional) with greater than 500 participant visits that reflect the racial and ethnic diversity of the community. These participants represent 110 distinct zip codes; 76% of these zip codes are underserved and designated HPSA. 60% self-identified as non-White and 20% identified as Hispanic, with 12 other distinct ethnicities represented. 28% of participants speak 11 languages other than English. Community-based CRCs can be created with sustainable growth to align with the mission of the National Institutes of Health and U.S. Food and Drug Administration to meet the ever-growing clinical, social, and research needs of the communities they serve.

Digital badges can provide condensed competency-based knowledge enabling individuals a chance to explore specialized careers in clinical research. A digital badge can be an efficient pathway to introduce clinical research job roles and educate a larger diverse workforce for clinical research coordinator positions at AMCs. The New Jersey Alliance for Clinical and Translational Science (NJ ACTS) developed a digital badge with potential to broaden exposure to training opportunities for CRCs and improve their prospects for a career at Rutgers. This paper describes the development of a digital badge introducing individuals to the clinical research profession, especially for those who aspire to become a CRC. The badge was designed to include five domains (Scientific Concepts and Research Design, Ethical and Participant Safety Considerations, Clinical Study Operations and Site Management, and Data Management and Informatics). Participants assessed the badge for accuracy and presentation level. The results demonstrated that the competencies were met, and content was appropriate for someone with limited knowledge of clinical research. Survey results along with the Difficulty Index and Discrimination Index calculated for quiz questions supported the badge rank as foundational. Research is ongoing to evaluate the value of the badge to job acquisition, performance, and career growth.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: The University of Puerto Rico-Medical Sciences Campus and Universidad Central del Caribe, through the Title V Cooperative Project, devised a clinical and translational research (CTR) platform to pipeline students/faculty of undergraduate health sciences programs into CTR. Educational interventions in CTR—introductory intervention (II) and Annual Symposium (AS)—were designed to promote awareness, stimulate interest of students and faculty in CTR. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: In the II the participants (n=159) were surveyed before and after a presentation and panel discussion about CTR. In addition, after the sessions—plenary, panel, and workshop—about CTR, the participants of AS (n=42) were surveyed for satisfaction and learning experience in CTR. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Most participants of the II, 134 (84.3%) were students. In total, 58 (58, 36.5%) completed the post II survey. Of these, 53.4% satisfactorily defined the CTR concept Versus only 31.0% that could define CTR in the pre survey, 47 (81.7%) were unable to identify a CTR researcher and 45 (78.3 %) expressed interest in learning about CTR. In total, 28 (28, 66.7%) participants of the AS completed the satisfaction survey, out of which 17 (60.6%) were students. One hundred percent (100%) agreed that the AS served as a vehicle to increase their knowledge in CTR. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: The educational interventions demonstrated to be an effective strategy to promote awareness and stimulate interest of students and faculty in CTR. In addition, the results obtained, provided valuable baseline information for the planning—development of training cycles in CTR.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Explain the difference between creative and critical thinking. Practice and enhance the critical thinking skills. Display innovative thinking through creative solutions and insights. Critically evaluate evidence in research. Think imaginatively, actively seeking out new points of view. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Offer an online course in Critical and Creative Thinking to junior researchers to improve their capacity to think and transforms their ideas in research questions and aims that bring new option to the field of clinical and translational research. Evaluate their improvement through evaluation forms and exercises that show their process to think imaginatively. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: The Scholars will understood the importance of critical and creative thinking in their careers, believed they could apply the insights and knowledge from the course in their grant and paper writing, recognized that they don’t always consider if they are being critical or creative in their thinking and actions. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: The course helped the participants to improve their capacity to think and saw a need to develop a more systematic thought processes in their life and work. The junior research will understand the difference between opinion, reasoned, judgment and fact and they will be able to judge the credibility of an information source using criteria such as authorship, currency and potential bias that can improve their grant submission and scientific writing skills.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Previous studies showed that 52% of smokers were unsuccessful in quitting smoking. Smoking in alcoholics is 2-3 times that of the general population with 50%-80% of alcoholics smoking regularly. Studies have linked several genetic variants to addiction. We examined the relation between successful quitting smoking, alcohol use, and genetic data for CYP2A6, CYP2B6, DRD2, DRD1 and GABRB1 alleles. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We analyzed data from NHANES III 1988-1994 for socioeconomic factors, physical activity, body mass index (BMI), alcohol status, successful quit smoking, and genetic data for CYP2A6, CYP2B6, DRD2, DRD1 and GABRB1 alleles. Multivariate logistic regression was used to examine the association between successful quit smoking and genotypes adjusting for other variables. Data were analyzed using SAS version 9.3 (design & weight). RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Of the 2,269 smokers, 57% were current smokers, 35% were heavy drinkers, 24% were both smokers & heavy drinkers and 41% successfully quitted smoking. Successfully quit smoking was associated with CYP2A6 (rs28399433-TG) (adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 3.6, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.1-11.9, p = 0.03), CYP2B6 (rs2279343-AA and AG) (AOR = 2.3, 95%CI = 1.5-3.5, p = 0.0003 for AA & AOR = 2.3, 95%CI = 1.2-4.2, p = 0.01 for AG) and DRD1 (rs4532-AA) (AOR = 2.2, 95%CI = 1.01-4.6, p = 0.04). Among heavy drinkers, those with CYP2A6 (rs28399433-TG) and CYP2B6 (rs2279343-AA and AG) were more likely to successfully quit smoking and those with CYP2A6 (rs5031017-GG) and GABRB1 (rs1442099-CC) were less likely to successfully quit smoking (p<0.05). DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: We concluded that while rs28399433-TG, rs2279343-AA & AG positively impacted the success to quit smoking, rs5031017-GG & rs1442099-CC negatively impacted the success in quitting smoking both overall and specifically in heavy drinker smokers.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Describe the pipeline of training, coaching, and council opportunities through the Partnerships of Academicians and Communities for Translation (PACT) and how it enhances Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR) practices and increases community participation and capacity. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We conceptualized a pipeline for building capacity for community-based participatory research (CBPR). Key components include Colorado Immersion Training in Community Engagement which introduces academic investigators to specific geographic and demographic communities in Colorado, Partnership Development grants that fund time to building relationships between research and community, Joint Pilot Grants to provide subsequent funding for collaborative research, and the PACT, consisting of Community Research Liaisons (CRLs) and Community and Academic Council Members. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: The pilot grants program was created in 2008; to date has awarded 138 partnerships. In response to academic and community needs, our core developed CIT in 2010. 16 CIT Participants received Partnership Development pilot grant funding, six of whom went on to receive Joint Pilot funding, and an additional 8 who started with a Joint Pilot award. There have been 24 Partnership Development awardees who received subsequent Joint Pilot funding. Ten CIT participants have either become a PACT council member, pilot grants reviewer, or PACT trainer or coach. There has been one person to complete the entire pipeline from CIT, pilot grant awardee, to PACT council member. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: The pipeline is a strong foundation for engaging with academic and community researchers who aim to improve CBPR in Colorado. Our signature programs, CIT and Pilot Grants, are unique opportunities to increase community engagement across sectors and improve research practices.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS:. This study aims to understand the effects of prenatal opioid exposure on structural and functional connectivity in the neonatal brain. Our central hypothesis is that infants with prenatal opioid exposure will have decreased structural and functional connectivity as compared to non-exposed controls. Our overarching goal is to improve neurodevelopmental and behavioral outcomes in infants with prenatal opioid exposure. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION:. Infants with prenatal opioid exposure were recruited from 2 birth hospitals in our area. Control infants were recruited from the larger community. Infants underwent MRI between 4-6 weeks of age in the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Imaging Research Center. MRI sequences included 3D structural T1 and T2-weighted imaging, resting state functional connectivity MRI, and multi-shell DTI (36 directions at b=800 and 68 directions at b=2000). Tract-based spatial statistics (TBSS) was used to identify differences in fractional anisotropy (a measure of white matter integrity) between groups. Group independent component analysis was used to identify differences in resting-state networks between groups RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS:. There were 5 subjects enrolled in the study with evaluable imaging, 3 infants with prenatal opioid exposure and 2 unexposed controls. Structural MRI was normal in all cases. Infants with prenatal opioid exposure had reduced structural connectivity as measured by fractional anisotropy (FA) in the genu and splenium of the corpus callosum as compared with controls. The orange/red color represents areas in which the FA of the opioid-exposed group was lower than controls and green represents the white matter skeleton common to both groups. Infants with prenatal opioid exposure also had significantly reduced within-network functional connectivity strength (z-transformed partial correlation coefficient 0.358 vs 0.199, p = 0.03) in the sensorimotor network as compared with controls. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT:. In this small pilot study, both structural and functional connectivity were reduced in opioid-exposed infants compared with controls. This data suggests that differences in structural and functional connectivity may underlie the later developmental and behavioral problems seen in opioid-exposed children. These findings must be validated in a larger population with correction for confounding factors such as maternal education

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: To develop and validate a tool to systematically identify benefits accruing to research within the Translational Science Benefits Model (TSBM) framework. We used a Delphi panel to reach consensus among a group of experts on criteria required for a clinical, community, economic, or policy benefit to be verified as coming from research. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: A coding tool with proposed criteria to verify each of the 30 benefits was created at UCI to confirm the TSBM benefits resulting from funded research. We convened 11 experts from 8 CTSA hubs, who consisted of evaluators (faculty and staff) with experience using the TSBM. A web-based survey was used for Round 1, followed by a panel discussion of remaining unvalidated criteria, and a Round 2 survey as the final decision for inclusion of items in the tool. Response options for each criterion were “yes, required” or “no, not required”. Criteria that reached consensus (>70% agreement) were considered validated for inclusion in the final version. Panelist suggested criteria in Round 1 were also incorporated in the Round 2 survey for consideration by the experts. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: In the web-based survey for Round 1, all 11 experts participated and 92% of criteria reached the determined consensus level (N = 157). The remaining 8% of the criteria (N = 13) were discussed during the panel meeting. The discussion, in which 8 experts participated, was moderated by UCI and took place virtually via Zoom. All experts were sent a recording of the discussion and given the opportunity to post comments online about the remaining criteria before, during, and for a day after the discussion. Round 2 will include 50 newly proposed criteria from panelists and the 13 criteria that did not reach consensus in Round 1. Based on the results of Round 2, the criteria that reach consensus will be included in the final version of the coding tool that can be used across all TSBM benefits. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Using the Delphi Methodology, we will have a standardized set of criteria that may be applied to determine whether a TSBM benefit has resulted from a specific research project or program. This standardization will allow for aggregation and comparison of data across CTSA hubs and further multi-level evaluation of impact.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Wheezing has been shown to be associated with use of cigarettes, and more recently, electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS). This study assessed the association of poly use of tobacco products with wheezing among a national representative sample of US adult current tobacco users. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Data from the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH) Study Wave 3 (W3) were used. Weighted prevalences of self-reported wheezing and related respiratory symptoms for non-users compared to users of cigarettes, ENDS, cigars, and any combination of these products (poly use of tobacco products) were presented for 28,082 adults. The cross-sectional association of tobacco use with self-reported wheezing and other related respiratory symptoms was assessed using weighted multivariable and ordinal logistic regression with consideration of complex sampling design. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Most adults who reported on wheezing symptoms did not currently use cigarettes, ENDS or cigars (79%), 15% used cigarettes, 3% used a combination of cigarettes, ENDS and cigars, 1% used ENDS, and 1% used cigars. Significantly higher odds of ever had wheezing or whistling in chest at any time in the past was observed among current cigarette (adjusted OR: 2.62, 95%CI: 2.35, 2.91), ENDS (1.49, 95%CI: 1.14, 1.95), and poly users (2.67, 95%CI: 2.26, 3.16) compared to non-users. No differences were seen for cigar use. Polytobacco use was associated with a higher odds of ever wheezing when compared to ENDS (1.61, 95%CI: 1.19, 2.17) and cigar use (2.87, 95%CI: 1.93, 4.26), but not cigarettes. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Wheezing is associated with the use of cigarettes, ENDS, or any combination of cigarette, ENDS and cigars likely due to the inhalation of noxious chemicals and gases found in the smoke of cigarettes and ENDS that are likely to increase the odds of experiencing wheezing. CONFLICT OF INTEREST DESCRIPTION: MLG serves as a paid consultant for Johnson & Johnson and has received research grant from Pfizer, manufacturers of smoking cessation medications. The other authors have no conflicts to declare.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Translational research involves researchers’ teams working together to address health issues. However, successful translational researchers in health disparities require a set of competencies and skills. In order to increase the number of new minority investigators in translational research focused on health disparities, the Hispanics-in-Research Capability: SoHP & SoM Partnership and the Puerto Rico Clinical and Translational Research Consortium designed and implemented a webinar series “Fostering the Next Generation of Researchers in Health Disparities.” METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: From March 31 to July 14, 2017, this webinar series offered the theoretical perspectives of health disparities, research methodology specific to its study, and intervention strategies to address health disparities in communities through minority investigators. National and local interdisciplinary experts were the presenters. Participants’ experience and impact were assessed through a self-administrated questionnaire. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: A total of 78 minority investigators participated in this webinar. Overall, participants indicated that the webinar improved their knowledge and skills about health disparities research. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Results guide the programs actions plans to enhance and support the translational researchers’ capacity. Diverse capacity building initiatives including peer-to-peer education, online course, tailored coaching, and other interventions have been designed to address researchers’ needs. This webinar was a pathway to build the next generation of translational researchers in health disparities.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Heart transplant (HTx) recipients are more likely to exhibit abnormal circadian blood pressure (BP) patterns (e.g., lack of nocturnal dip in BP) compared with the general population. Our goal was to assess the relationship between abnormal circadian BP patterns and end-organ damage in HTx recipients. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: The retrospective study included 30 patients who were ≥ 6 months post-heart transplant and had 24-hour ambulatory BP data collected during a parent study. Nocturnal BP decline was categorized as: ≥10% decline, dipper; <10% decline, non-dipper. The primary end-organ damage outcomes we plan to analyze are left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), chronic kidney disease (CKD), and proteinuria. The association between nocturnal BP decline and the primary outcomes will be analyzed using logistic regression. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: The study cohort consists of 83% men and 83% Caucasians (mean age=57±14 years; mean time post-transplant =9.0±6.6 years). Systolic and diastolic non-dippers represent 53.3% and 40% of the cohort, respectively. Data are currently being analyzed for the association between nocturnal BP dipping status and LVH, CKD, and proteinuria. These findings will be presented at the conference. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: An understanding of factors, such as abnormal circadian BP patterns, that contribute to the development of end-organ damage following HTx may provide opportunities to improve BP management and prevent adverse complications in this high-risk population.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Trigeminal Neuralgia (TN) is a debilitating neuropathic condition characterized by electric-shock-like pain attacks. TN is considered a clinical diagnosis, and few proposed objective markers exist. This work studies the ability of advanced MRI techniques to diagnose and classify TN. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Anatomical MRI data from patients undergoing radiosurgery to treat TN was collected. A custom deep-learning UNet algorithm was trained to segment trigeminal nerves from the pons to the anterior wall of Meckels cave using segments drawn by an expert in neuroanatomy. 108 radiomics features related to nerve shape, voxel intensity, and image texture were extracted from the segmented nerves. A 2 layer neural network was trained to distinguish TN affected nerves from the pain-free contralateral nerves. Feature selection was performed within a cross-validation scheme to prevent model overfitting. Mean model performance over the validation sets was used to estimate model generalizability. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: 134 patients and 268 nerves were included. The average number of years with TN was 8. The average validation set accuracy was 78% [range: 75-80%]. The average validation set sensitivity and specificity were 0.82 [range: 0.79-0.84] and 0.76 [range: 0.70-0.79]. 34% of patients had undergone a prior invasive procedure to treat their TN. To evaluate whether the model detected signal changes relating to the previous treatment, those patients were excluded and the model was retrained on the surgically naive patients. Model performance in a reduced cohort of patients was similar to the model trained on all the patients, with accuracy of 77% [range: 73-82%]. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: This study suggests that radiomics features calculated from MRIs of trigeminal nerves correlate with anatomical changes in TN affected nerves. This technique will need to be verified in a larger, more heterogeneous cohort of TN patients with a range of MRI acquisition parameters.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Multivariate regression is used for surgical outcomes analyses; but does not allow for evaluation of all variables. Machine learning could be the perfect alternative to address this issue. Our aim was to evaluate whether machine learning is a feasible alternative to evaluate surgical outcomes. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: H-CUP National Inpatient Sample database was queried for adult patients with colorectal cancer who underwent colorectal resection, while the NSQIP database was queried for adult patients with rectal cancer who underwent proctectomy. A multivariate regression analysis was performed to assess risk factors associated with 30-day complications following those procedures. Subsequently, machine learning techniques of under-sampling and oversampling were applied to the same datasets for the evaluation of risk factors for the same outcome. These techniques were used to achieve a larger population sample size and to detect statistical significance. Results between the two methodologies were compared. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Multivariate regression revealed that open approach, gender, race, geographic location, number of comorbidities, and type of insurance was associated with increased 30-day mortality in colorectal resection patients. Conversely, the use of machine learning revealed that preoperative weight loss, preexistent chest heart failure, renal failure or perivascular disease were strongly associated with 30-day mortality. For proctectomy patients, multivariate regression found no association between surgical approach and 30-day mortality. However, machine learning revealed gender, hypertension, and reoperation to be strongly associated with 30-day mortality. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Machine learning enabled multiple combinations that were not possible to examine in a conventional multivariate regression analysis. Machine learning compared to traditional multivariate regression produced significantly different outcomes, highlighting the need for in depth of these methodologies.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: The NIH states, “The training of the biomedical workforce has always been an integral part of the NIH mission… It takes just one good mentor to influence the career of a new investigator; it takes a robust culture of mentorship across the research community to strengthen, sustain and diversify the entire biomedical research enterprise.” The University of Minnesota’s CTSI-Education core strives to build and maintain a strong culture of mentoring by providing CTSI KL2 scholars an opportunity to mentor an undergraduate student participating in the Pathways to Research Program (PReP). Using this mentoring model, participants gain valuable benefits and CTSI’s culture of mentoring is strengthened. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Participating KL2 scholars are matched with a promising PReP scholar for a 12-week mentored research project. The PReP program selects top candidates through a highly competitive application process. Students work in their mentor’s lab full-time, funded by CTSI-Ed. They engage in additional activities together including a mentor/mentee, an interview activity and 2 social events. Junior faculty scholars are asked to participate as judges at CTSI’s Poster Session and are invited to present at PReP seminars. The program culminates with the announcement of the Junior Mentor of the Year, in which scholars nominate their mentors for the award. Junior faculty mentors receive support through a training course, Optimizing the Practice of Mentoring, mentor orientation and a roundtable discussion with the program director and other mentors. The program’s infrastructure is designed to foster mentee/mentor relationships through faculty and staff support. Junior faculty receive one-on-one coaching when faced with difficult mentoring situations and are recognized for their mentoring successes. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Junior faculty mentors highly rate the program on the following points; the experience was a good use of time, I am satisfied with my experience, I would recommend this program to faculty colleagues and students. Undergraduates and Professional students rated their mentoring relationship as 1 of 3 best outcomes of the program. In exit surveys, their highly rated program successes include having a network that helps move their career forward, and confidence to persist through training to become a successful researcher. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Creating a culture of mentoring is important to the strengthen, sustain and diversify the biomedical research workforce. This mentoring model contributes to the mission while vertically integrating CTSI-Ed’s KL2 and PReP programs. On an individual level, junior faculty improve communication and management skills, develop leadership qualities, increase their network, provide a sense of fulfilment and personal growth, and reinforce their own skills and knowledge of subject. They are also provided a top undergraduate student worker fully funded by the program.

ABSTRACT IMPACT: Optimizing the use of endotracheal aspirate cultures (EACs) has the potential to improve the care of complex mechanically ventilated children by improving testing practices and avoiding unnecessary antibiotic treatment for false-positive results. OBJECTIVES/GOALS: An electronic survey has previously been employed to characterize the practices and attitudes around blood cultures among critically ill children. The objective of this work was to develop and pilot a new survey as a tool to understand practices and attitudes that could inform quality improvement initiatives to optimize EAC practices. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Informed by prior experience of diagnostic stewardship of EAC in other settings and using a similar structure to the blood culture practice survey, we developed an electronic self-administered survey sent to respiratory therapists, advanced practice providers, and physicians at the Johns Hopkins All Children’s pediatric intensive care unit. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: A total of 27 of 87 clinicians (37%) responded to the survey (22 respiratory therapists, 9 attending physicians and 1 advanced practice provider). Responses indicated samples are typically collected by respiratory therapists via in-line (endotracheal) or open suctioning (tracheostomy). Most respondents did not feel EACs could lead to unintended negative consequences (71%), agreed practices vary between people (89%), and felt an algorithm would help align the clinical team (79%). Most respondents agreed some clinicians may be reluctant to change practice (82%) and may not change practice due to concern for missing diagnosis of ventilator-associated pneumonia or tracheitis (78%). Surveillance cultures were not used in this unit and there were no prior EAC diagnostic stewardship efforts. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF FINDINGS: This survey captured practices, perceptions and barriers to changes that will inform the implementation of quality improvement initiatives to optimize EAC use in this unit. Future studies can consider utilizing an electronic survey to describe practice variation, clinician believes and attitudes about EAC testing in ventilated patients.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: The Community Engagement Forum (CEF), a quarterly series hosted by the Colorado Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CCTSI) and the ACCORDS Education program, provides seminars from leading academic and community research partners. Our goal is to share the process and outcomes so others may implement a similar forum in their institution. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: In 2019, CCTSI and the ACCORDS Education Program partnered to offer a forum to exchange best practices for investigators and study teams conducting community-engaged research. Each forum features presenters from community and academic partnerships. Initially this series was offered in-person; during the COVID-19 Pandemic the Forum moved online. At registration we collect data on current position, school/department or organization, and how they heard about the forum. Post session evaluations are also collected. Various topics have been covered including: community engagement foundations, creating advisory boards, responding appropriately to community needs in a pandemic, data equity, and community dissemination. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Between October 2019 and October 2022, we hosted twelve Community Engagement Forums. A total of 442 people have attended the forums, with the School of Medicine having the highest representation. Among attendees, university research staff are the highest represented position in attendance, with 115 attendees over the 12 forums. 133 people have completed evaluation questions since the start of the forum series. High percentages of agreement were seen from the question, will you use this information to make adjustments/improvements or continue the conversation . Additionally, most respondents agreed that the presentations were useful to their current or future work. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: The CEF series has filled a gap for desired resources related to best practices for community-engaged research. CCTSI CE&HC and ACCORDS Education have created a learning community for investigators and study teams to share lessons learned and provide opportunities for trouble-shooting research ideas as they arise.
