abstract: 'Background Ageing into adulthood is challenging at baseline, and doing
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
so with a chronic disease can add increased stress and vulnerability.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Worldwide, a substantial care gap exists as children transition from
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
care in a paediatric to adult setting. There is no current consensus on
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
safe and equitable healthcare transition (HCT) for patients with chronic
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
disease in resource-denied settings. Much of the existing literature is
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
specific to HIV care. The objective of this narrative review was to
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
summarise current literature related to adolescent HCT not associated
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
with HIV, in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs) and other
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
resource-denied settings, in order to inform equitable health policy
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
strategies. Methods A literature search was performed using defined
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
search terms in PubMed and Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Literature databases to identify all peer-reviewed studies published
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
until January 2020, pertaining to paediatric to adult HCT for
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
adolescents and young adults with chronic disease in resource-denied
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
settings. Following deduplication, 1111 studies were screened and
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
reviewed by two independent reviewers, of which 10 studies met the
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
inclusion criteria. Resulting studies were included in thematic analysis
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
and narrative synthesis. Results Twelve subthemes emerged, leading to
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
recommendations which support equitable and age-appropriate adolescent
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
care. Recommendations include (1) improvement of community health
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
education and resilience tools for puberty, reproductive health and
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
mental health comorbidities; (2) strengthening of health systems to
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
create individualised adolescent-responsive policy; (3) incorporation of
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
social and financial resources in the healthcare setting; and (4)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
formalisation of institution-wide procedures to address
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
community-identified barriers to successful transition. Conclusion
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Limitations of existing evidence relate to the paucity of formal policy
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
for paediatric to adult transition in LMICs for patients with
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
childhood-onset conditions, in the absence of a diagnosis of HIV. With a
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
rise in successful treatments for paediatric-onset chronic disease,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
adolescent health and transition programmes are needed to guide
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
effective health policy and risk reduction for adolescents in
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
resource-denied settings.'
