Are Adolescents healthy?Are Adolescents healthy?
Wide range of psychosocial and health risk behaviors exist in adolescence
Health and social choices adolescents make place them at risk and establish adult habits
Increased stress and mental health issues impact health
The health visit; The health visit; missed opportunitymissed opportunity
74% of teens had a health check up in the past 2 years
Wished to discuss an average of 6.7 topics1/3 had not discussed any of the topics they wanted to talk about
Only 12% discussed all their desired topics
Only 50% had counseling when risk factors present28% counseled if used alcohol 38% counseled if inadequate exercise 40% counseled if smoking

Rethinking Adolescent Primary CareRethinking Adolescent Primary Care
Better ways to efficiently assess the wide range of current health behaviors and risks
More effective counseling Better ways to motivate teens to make changes to improve their health
ChallengesChallenges Wide range of health risks and key issues missed in clinical interviews or a few questions
Existing screening with GAPSAMA Guidelines for Adolescent Preventive Services
Screening surveys for younger/older teens and parents (70-80 questions). Initial and follow up forms
Assesses health risk and protective factorsComprehensive contentCumbersome to maintain paper survey system
Does not address key issues like anxiety, alcohol, strengths
““Healthy Teens” ProjectsHealthy Teens” Projects Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Prescription for Health National Program Funded in both Round One and Round Two
Develop new approaches to health counseling in the preventive health visit Only adolescent focused project
Utilize technology to optimize time available to clinician to discuss issues Comprehensive health history/screening adapted from GAPS Branching question path, if positive for risk behaviors Additional assessments such as CRAFFT, eating disorders, sports
risk screening Assessed motivation and self-efficacy for change for 5 health
behaviors Confidentiality and Health Messages included during screening
CECH: Clinicians Enhancing Child Health

Network research in primary care involves common child and family health issuesAdolescent health, parental depression, obesity prevention
John, 14 yr old for a health visitJohn, 14 yr old for a health visitHis doctor had cared for him for years He found him a shy kid with no problems who was hard to get talking.
What his PDA revealed:Sad thoughts, no recent fun, no friends or adults he felt he could talk with, guns in the home, didn’t feel his parents really listened to him, school performance worse than last year. Concerned about problems in his family. Binge drinking and CRAFFT positive. Otherwise screener topics negative.
What happened with his provider:The provider knew it was important to talk with John alone. With review of his PDA answers and John opened up and talked about personal and family problems. He acknowledged recent increased drinking at parties and drinking alone recently.

88% during PDA use vs. 63% before PDA* rated their provider as listening very carefully to them (1 on a 7 point likkert scale)

one to jump to specific questions Printed summary after synch to website
Changes in Clinician counseling approach Brief motivational techniques to more effectively counsel
Office FlowOffice Flow PDA given to patient either in the waiting room or when put into
the exam room. Teen completes in 9-10 minutes Easy for nursing/rooming staff

Clinician ExperiencesClinician Experiences
Able to set priorities because informed before visit Joint agenda setting with teen Address issues teens interested in changing differently
than when not interested
Important mental health issues Cluster of fatigue, stress, parents don’t listen,
substance use and depression screen positive
Know all the issues have been asked Frees up time to explore key issues in more depth and
counsel vs only drag out the information. Difficult for clinicians to consistently assess all
topics
