Description
An account of the resource
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Although there are general guidelines for adolescents with chronic illnesses making the transition from paediatric to adult health care, there are few studies which evaluate transition programs. This cross-sectional study was a preliminary evaluation of a transition program for young people with cystic fibrosis. Study group and methods: A self-administered questionnaire was completed by a group of 'pre-transition' adolescents and their parents who had not moved on to adult health care and a 'post-transition' group who had moved on from the Children's Hospital at Westmead over a six year period. The questionnaire examined patient and parent concerns about adult health care, participation in steps of the transition process, satisfaction with transition and health related quality of life. Measures of disease severity (lung function tests and body mass index) were also included. RESULTS: 137 out of 220 (62%) eligible participants completed the questionnaire. In the pre-transition group, parents had more concerns compared to young people. There was no evidence of a significant difference between pre-transition and post-transition young people regarding degree of concern. Most people were satisfied with the transition program and posttransition patients and parents who completed more steps in the transition program described the overall transition process more positively. There was no evidence of a relationship between amount of participation in transition and measures of disease severity or quality of life.

Description
An account of the resource
Young people with a chronic illness or disability originating in childhood ultimately need transition to adult care. The process of leaving a familiar paediatric service and effectively engaging in appropriate adult health care can be challenging and complex. The process often occurs when there are other significant transitions in a young person's life. Australia has a number of state-wide transition initiatives, which aim to address the consistent themes of transition including health care equity, information transfer between health services, consumer participation and the engagement of adult services. What is apparent is the need for the development of transition models, ideally by collaboration between paediatric and adult services, which can be trialed and evaluated in order to best inform how resources need to be distributed. It is also clear that there will be a number of models, defined by the specific disease process. There should always be an emphasis on the needs and wellbeing of young people with chronic illness and the acknowledgement that they should be supported in their quest to lead a normal life.
