Parental knowledge of their child's medical condition supports parents in managing youth health needs, advocating for their child and responding to complications. Little is known about parent understanding of youth SB. The purpose of this study is to identify parent perceptions and knowledge of aetiology and problems associated with SB to support opportunities for intervention in families of youth with SB.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Parents of 140 youth with SB completed open\u2010response questions as part of a modified version of the Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire regarding perceptions of (1) problems associated with SB and (2) causes of SB.

Perceptions of problems included physical (e.g., toileting, and ambulation) and neurocognitive (e.g., executive function) concerns, as well as family and caregiver functioning (e.g., caregiver burden) challenges. This study highlighted some areas of misunderstanding with respect to knowledge of aetiology (e.g., environmental toxins).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Parent perceptions of SB focused on a variety of salient medical and nonmedical problems. In addition, gaps in knowledge of condition aetiology were highlighted. Medical providers and paediatric psychosocial care providers should provide individualized and developmentally appropriate education regarding SB from diagnosis through young adulthood to support family adjustment, caregiver well\u2010being and tailored medical management. Future research should examine predictors of parent knowledge and perceptions.<\/jats:p>\n
