Abstract
Purpose of review: Transition of care for pediatric patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) is a continuous, dynamic process that takes place over several years with a coordinated approach executed by a multidisciplinary team. We review the concepts, tools, and research in effective transitioning and transfer of care for adolescent/young adult patients with IBD.
Recent findings: Given the constraints within the healthcare system, effective transitioning can be challenging to implement in everyday clinical practice. Different barriers include resources and expertise in effective transitioning by pediatric and adult gastroenterology healthcare providers and the impact of non-gastrointestinal issues facing young adult patients who are learning to manage and coordinate all aspects of their medical care and health maintenance. Factors that facilitate successful care transitioning and transfer include structured transitioning programs, utilization of validated transition checklists, and IBD medical summaries. Proactive transitioning by pediatric gastroenterologists in partnership with their emerging young adult patients with IBD leads to better clinical and psychosocial outcomes and ultimately, effective transfer of care to adult gastroenterology. By utilizing utilize comprehensive transition assessment tools and medical summaries in partnership with their patients, pediatric and adult gastroenterology teams can better prepare patients as they transfer to independent care and health maintenance.
期刊介绍：
As the field of gastroenterology and hepatology rapidly evolves, the wealth of published literature can be overwhelming. The aim of the journal is to help readers stay abreast of such advances by offering authoritative, systematic reviews by leading experts. We accomplish this aim by appointing Section Editors who invite international experts to contribute review articles that highlight recent developments and important papers published in the past year. Major topics in gastroenterology are covered, including pediatric gastroenterology, neuromuscular disorders, infections, nutrition, and inflammatory bowel disease. These reviews provide clear, insightful summaries of expert perspectives relevant to clinical practice. An Editorial Board of internationally diverse members suggests topics of special interest to their country/region and ensures that topics are current and include emerging research. We also provide commentaries from well-known figures in the field.
