ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
In 2018, 55.4% of the 7180 French cystic fibrosis (CF) patients were adults. Our study was aimed at identifying young adult patients' needs and those of their parents when the young adults arrived in an adult CF center.METHODOLOGY:
Semi-structured interviews, conducted between July 2018 and December 2019and involving all the concerned teenagers and their parents, took place at least 6 months after their transfer. The interview guide dwelt on the aspects having had an impact on their experience of the transition. The interviews were recorded, transcribed and analyzed exhaustively. The results were classified by categorizing the contents according to respondent profile.RESULTS:
Thirty-eight young adult patients and 16 parents were interviewed. As regards the young adults, analysis of their needs underlined the importance of their continuing to develop their skills in adaptation, communication and self-care. As regards their parents, they needed support in view of defining their role in their children's new care pathway.CONCLUSION:
During and also following the transfer, therapeutic education for the parents as well as the young adults requires reinforcement.Key words
