    Area of Science:

    • Endocrinology
    • Pediatric Endocrinology
    • Adolescent Medicine

    Background:

    • Transitioning young people with diabetes from pediatric to adult care presents unique challenges.
    • Current models of care may not adequately prepare adolescents for adult diabetes management.
    • Effective transfer strategies are crucial for long-term health outcomes in young adults with diabetes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate different clinical practice models for young people with diabetes during their transition to adult services.
    • To identify patient preferences for clinic structures and staffing during the transfer process.
    • To understand the informational needs of young people approaching adult diabetes care.

    Main Methods:

    • Qualitative study involving interviews with young people with diabetes prior to their transfer to adult care.

  • Exploration of preferences regarding clinic models, including 'age-banded' clinics.
  • Assessment of perceived information gaps related to adult diabetes services.

    • Main Results:

    • Young people expressed a clear preference for 'age-banded' clinics.
    • These preferred clinics should be staffed by a multidisciplinary diabetes team with expertise from both adult and pediatric services.
    • A significant lack of information was reported by young people regarding their upcoming adult care clinics.

    Conclusions:

    • 'Age-banded' clinics represent a favored model for facilitating the transition of young people with diabetes to adult care.
    • Multidisciplinary staffing, integrating adult and pediatric expertise, is essential for these transition clinics.
    • Addressing informational deficits is critical to improve the transition experience and ensure continuity of care for adolescents with diabetes.
