About this study

Official title: Describing Relationships Between Psychosocial Outcomes and Readiness for Transition in Adolescent and Young Adult Patients With Uveitis - a Pilot Study

It is widely acknowledged that the transition from paediatric to adult health services should be a multidimensional and multidisciplinary process that addresses the medical, psychosocial, and educational needs of adolescents and young adults (AYA). Despite this, there is currently a scarcity of research examining the relationships between psychosocial factors (e.g., anxiety, social support) and transition readiness in AYA with uveitis. This study therefore aims to examine the relationships between psychosocial factors and transition readiness in pre-transfer adolescents and post-transfer young adults aged 10-25 years diagnosed with JIA at a single centre.

In total, 25 adolescents aged 10-16 years, together with a parent/guardian, will participate at Sheffield Children's Hospital and 10 young adults aged 16-25 years will participate at Sheffield Teaching Hospitals. Participants completed a battery of self-report questionnaire measuring psychosocial factors (anxiety/depression, social support, family functioning, health-related quality of life) and transition readiness (transition knowledge and skills, self-efficacy). Uveitis disease severity was also measured during clinic appointments. A subset of participants will also be asked to take part in a focus group. This study received full ethical approval, and all participants will give their written informed assent or consent before taking part.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Uveitis, run by Sheffield Children's NHS Foundation Trust at 1 site in United Kingdom.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Sep 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United Kingdom. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Generalised Anxiety (time frame: Day 1, when participants complete the study questionnaire). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Sep 2018.
