Sleep, Pain, Anxiety, Depression, and Fatigue in Pediatric IBD

Posted by Michael Jannicelli | Nov 14, 2023 | Uncategorized | 0 |

Symptoms including Sleep, Pain, Anxiety, Depression, and low Energy/fatigue, also known as the SPADE pentad, can be debilitating for people living with IBD. Research with adults with IBD has found that SPADE symptoms can be particularly distressing and disruptive, even for patients in disease remission. SPADE symptoms are believed to be multidimensional, complex, and multifactorial in nature, suggesting a number of interacting clinical, demographic, and psychosocial characteristics contribute to symptom severity. However, we have yet to explore the relationships among these symptoms in the pediatric population living with IBD.

A new research study seeks to explore SPADE symptoms in teens with IBD.
