| Abstract | Background: Adolescents with cystic fibrosis (CF) and their parents must navigate changing roles and responsibilities within the family including transfer of disease management responsibilities. Aim/objective: The aim of this qualitative study was to explore how families share and transfer CF management responsibility from the perspectives of adolescents with CF and their parents. Methods: Guided by qualitative descriptive methodology, we purposively sampled adolescent/parent dyads. Participants completed two surveys measuring family responsibility (Family Responsibility Questionnaire [FRQ]) and transition readiness (Transition Readiness Assessment Questionnaire [TRAQ]) We conducted semistructured video or phone interviews, used a codebook to guide team coding and analyzed qualitative data using both content analysis and dyadic interview analysis. Results: Thirty participants (15 dyads) enrolled (7% Black; 33% Latina/o; 40% female; adolescent age 14.4 ± 2 years; 66% prescribed highly effective modulator therapy; 80% of parents were mothers). Parent FRQ and TRAQ scores were significantly higher than their adolescent indicating differing perceptions of responsibility and transition readiness. We inductively identified four themes: (1) CF management is a delicate balance (CF management is a routine which is easily disrupted), (2) Growing up and parenting under extraordinary circumstances (the burden of CF weighs on families as they navigate adolescence), (3) Differing Perceptions of risk and responsibility (adolescent and parent perceptions of treatment responsibility and the risks of nonadherence do not always align), and (4) Balancing independence and protection (families must weigh the benefits and risks of allowing adolescents increased independence). Conclusions: Adolescents and parents demonstrated differing perceptions of CF management responsibility, which may be related to a lack of communication between family members about this topic. To help facilitate alignment of parent and adolescent expectations, discussion of family roles and responsibility for CF management should begin early during the transition process and be discussed regularly during clinic visits. |
