Clinical Trial Summary

Sexual health is a legitimate area to explore in the care of these patients, as it has such an impact on quality of life. However, addressing sexual health in a situation of chronic disease confronts the double societal taboo of disease and sexuality. Health professionals are uncomfortable because they are not trained to talk about the subject, especially in the presence of parents and with a teenager they have watched grow up.

In this context, a needs survey among juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) patients and the point of view of their parents in the field of sexual health seems necessary.

Main objective: To determine the expectations of adolescents (aged 10-19 years) with juvenile idiopathic arthritis regarding knowledge and communication with health care professionals in the field of sexual health.

Description:

This study is non-interventional, multi-centre and does not change current practice.

It will begin with the construction in a multidisciplinary team of two "needs assessment" questionnaires, the first for adult patients who have suffered from JIA, the second for their parents.

They will be drawn up by three sexologists, two rheumatologists, a pediatrician, a nurse from UTEP, a biostatistician, a statistician specializing in questionnaire metrology, two patients with JIA, two parents of JIA patients, and the Director of the ANDAR patient association.

These "needs assessment" questionnaires, entirely anonymous, will be composed of closed, Likert scale or semi-open questions.

The questionnaires will be implemented under RedCap° for patient associations.

The material necessary for the study (invitation letter + "patients"/"parents"-information letters + paper questionnaires for both surveys + pre-stamped letters) will be in paper format for hospital centres. These centres will ensure the follow-up of the study.

The invitation to participate in the survey by mailing or newsletter or association website will be made by the heads of patient associations.
