概要 Issues related to transitioning from paediatric to adult healthcare are currently receiving international attention. In Japan, 1000 patients with childhood-onset chronic rheumatological diseases reach adulthood every year and require transition from care by paediatric to care by adult rheumatologists. Here, we propose a guide for the latter, wherein the adult caregiver poses the clinical questions about transitional support that they need to have answered, and the paediatric caregiver mainly compiles the plans for the transition. To formulate the guide, we sought comments from both the Japan College of Rheumatology and the Pediatric Rheumatology Association of Japan and obtained their approval. Here, we present the outcome of this consultation in the form of a Guide for Supporting Transitional Care, aiming to provide essential knowledge to physicians in the fields of adult internal medicine and orthopaedics who may be involved in treating patients with rheumatic disease during the transition from paediatric to adult care. The features of transitional support that are common for patients with various different rheumatic diseases are presented in this guide, with the aim of informing policy and strategies to deliver optimal outcomes in transitional care by non-paediatric rheumatologists.
