Abstract

The transfer or transition from paediatric care to adult medicine is, for a large number of adolescents and young adults being monitored for a rare and/or chronic pathology, as well as for the care teams, a critical period in their medical journey and in their life. It is both an individual and a public health issue, with medical-economic consequences. At the hôpital Necker-Enfants malades in Paris, a specific programme has been implemented aimed at the patients and carers.

Keywords: adolescent; chronic disease; jeune adulte; maladie chronique; maladie rare; rare disease; transfer; transfert; transition; young adult.
