| Abstract | Background We aimed to evaluate the long-term clinical and socioeconomic outcome of structured transition care in adolescents with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Methods We compared the clinical long-term course of 24 patients with and 11 patients without structured transition care within 24 months before and 24 months after transfer from paediatric to adult health care. Socio-economic parameters and quality of life were assessed by IBD Questionnaire (IBDQ-32) and additional items. Treatment costs were calculated for medication, surgery and hospitalisation. Results The percentage of transfer group patients with an IBD-related intestinal complication was higher compared to the transition group (64% vs. 21%, p = 0.022). We also found a tendency towards a higher number of IBD-related surgery in the transfer group compared to the transition group (46% vs. 13%, p = 0.077). Transfer group patients received higher mean cumulated doses of radiation compared with the transition group (4.2 ± 5.3 mSv vs. 0.01 ± 0.01 mSv, p = 0.036). Delayed puberty was only noted in the transfer group (27%, p = 0.025). Mean expenditures for surgeries and hospitalisation tended to be lower in the transition group compared to transfer group patients (744 ± 630€ vs. 2,691 ± 4,150€, p = 0.050). Sexual life satisfaction was significantly higher (p = 0.023) and rates of loose bowel movements tended to be lower (p = 0.053) in the transition group. Conclusions Structured transition of adolescents with IBD from paediatric into adult health care can lead to important clinical and economic benefits. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
