Social determinants of health do predict outcomes in pediatric short bowel syndrome in real ways.
Distance from the hospital was associated with higher risks of serious complications in children with short bowel syndrome.
Parental education was linked with fewer central line infections in children with short bowel syndrome.
Social determinants need to be considered to support families of children with short bowel syndrome better.
