Abstract:
Objective:To study the current status of transitional readiness from adolescence to adulthood of patients with inflammatory bowel disease（IBD）in China,analyze the factors affecting transitional readiness,and provide a basis for developing scientific and targeted transitional preparedness programmes.Methods:The IBD patients aged 12-24 years who were admitted to the Department of Gastroenterology,Beijing Children's Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from January 1,2016 to January 15,2025 were enrolled.From November 1,2024 to January 15,2025,the survey was conducted through online distribution of the transition readiness assessment questionnaire (TRAQ)6.0 Chinese version scale to IBD patients by using the convenient sampling method.The scores of each dimension of TRAQ scale were calculated,and multiple linear regression analysis was used to analyze the factors influencing the scores of TRAQ during the transitional period.Results:A total of 184 patients were included and 184 questionnaires were collected.Male patients were slightly more than female(109:75),with an average age of (14.94±2.35) years.70.11% of patients had a disease duration of 1 to 5 years,with Crohn's disease accounting for the highest proportion(54.89%),and the severity of the disease was mostly mild to moderate.Family support was generally higher(84.24%).Parents were highly involved in patient disease management(94.02%).There were 52.72% of the patients received social support.The mean score of the TRAQ was 4.14 ± 0.89,and the mean scores of the four dimensions from high to low were following health problems(4.28±0.97),insisting on making an appointment and seeing a doctor on time(4.20±1.10),talking with medical staff(4.17±1.05) and drug management(4.14±0.99).Multiple linear regression analysis showed that family status,the encourage,supports and help from the family members,and the supports from the society were the independent influencing factors of IBD patients' readiness score for transition from adolescence to adulthood( P<0.05).Among them,family status had a positive effect on transition readiness score,and the degree of readiness score increased with the increase of harmony( P<0.05).Social support also had a positive effect on transition readiness score( P<0.05).Compared with no encouragement,support and help from family members,the situation of little encouragement had a certain improvement on the readiness score( P<0.05). Conclusion:Children with IBD have better overall performance during the transition from adolescence to adulthood.Family status,the encourage,supports and help from the family members,and the supports from the society are the important factors influencing transitional preparedness.
