Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study
The Care of Children and Adolescents With Chronic Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Cluster-Randomized Trial on Improving the Guideline Conformity of Treatment by the Use of the CEDATA-GPGE Patient Registry.
For children and adolescents with chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), treatment that is not in adequate conformity with the guidelines can adversely affect both the course of disease and the patients' development. The targeted use of digital patient registries may improve real-life adherence to the recommendations of evidence-based guidelines. ⋯ Registry-based feedback can help bring treatment and its documentation into better con for - mity with the relevant guidelines and thereby reduce or prevent care deficits in children and adolescents with IBD.
