Burden and variation of care in children with inflammatory bowel disease in Canada: a population-based study
FY 2013-14
Summary
The inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are chronic, life-long disorders resulting from inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. Rates of childhood-onset IBD, including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, are rising rapidly in Ontario. This study will use provincial health databases to describe rates of IBD nationwide, as well as the burden these diseases place on the families and the health system. We will describe the variation in care and outcomes faced by children with IBD, describing differences in care by province and by health centre. We will describe WHO is providing care, WHAT care is being provided, HOW care is being provided, and WHEN care is being provided. Our goal is to identify unwanted variation in medical care to provide targets for future quality improvement efforts.
