Transitioning Young Patients' Health Care Trajectories

The project aims to transition the approach used to care for children with complex conditions and care pathways into a more holistic and coordinated model. The traditional model where specialists independently treat single diseases, makes joint and coordinated decisions about patients with multiple and unclear conditions difficult. In particular there is a gap between mental and somatic services. In preparation for re-designing the care model, several pre-studies are conducted, both a register study and a collection of user reported experiences. Built on the results, we have invented multi-disciplinary teams of complementary competences including paediatricians, psychologists, and physiotherapists to meet the patient and family. The study includes: * To implement the new team intervention in a clinical case-control study * To scientifically evaluate the intervention * To systematise lessons learned in regard to potential spread across systems and patient groups Children 6-16 years together with family and professionals will constitute the team. The assessment aims to clarify the patient's condition through shared decision making and to develop a treatment plan for the child. It is a clinical randomised controlled trial where TpT children will be compared to children following treatment as usual. It includes a one year follow-up regarding a set of evaluation domains: provider perspectives, user-centred experiences and outcomes, as well as health care outcomes.
