adolescent health training issues
quality of care in adolescent rheumatology
communication with young people
a full chapter written by young people attending adolescent rheumatology clinics
This guide also covers core adolescent health topics and how these factors are impacted by rheumatic disease, which includes:

adherence
back pain
chronic idiopathic pain
cognitive development
communication
generic health issues
growth and puberty
juvenile idiopathic arthritis
