Prospective Evaluation of the Results of Multidisciplinary Follow-up After a Transitional Consultation for Esophageal Atresia

Evaluation Prospective Des résultats du Suivi Pluridisciplinaire Mis en Place au décours d'Une Consultation de Transition Pour l'atrésie de l'œsophage

A transition consultation for adult patients with esophageal atresia, involving medical and paramedical stakeholders, was set up at Hôpital Saint-Louis in 2020. The aim of this initiative is to: 1. initiate adult medical, psychological and social follow-up; 2. empower these adults in their future care; 3. establish a personalized follow-up schedule. This project is the first to focus on post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in young adults with esophageal atresia. A 3-year analysis of the somatic and psychosocial variables analyzed will confirm the validity of this initiative, and define its optimal contours for improving these patients' quality of life as adults.
