Feasibility Test of Action Planning in Pediatric IBD
Sponsor: University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill
Summary
The goal of this interventional study is to test the feasibility of a new communication tool, call MyIBD, in youth ages 13 to 19 years with inflammatory bowel disease. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * Is the MyIBD communication tool feasible to use in everyday clinical practice? * Does the MyIBD tool have potential to improve patients' self-management skills and the quality of care they receive? Participants who receive the MyIBD intervention will complete surveys about their care at three times points - at study enrollment, at 6 months, and at 12 months. The surveys will help the research team learn about the feasibility of using MyIBD in practice and about any effects on patients' self-management skills and quality of care. Researchers will compare those receiving a MyIBD document to a randomly selected control group (patients receiving usual care for pediatric inflammatory bowel disease) to see if self-management skills and quality of care differ between the groups.

MyIBD
MyIBD has two components: (1) an electronic, templated document that presents brief, actionable, tailored guidance from IBD specialists to families and other providers who care for a pediatric patient with IBD; and (2) regular, short prompts sent through the electronic patient portal to remind patients to refer to and use their MyIBD document to guide decisions about care in between appointments.
