The development of a lifetime care model in comprehensive spina bifida care.

CONCLUSIONS: Our institutional experience suggests that patients with SB benefit from continuity of care throughout their lifetime. This article describes early failures which led to an evolution in approach and implementation of a Lifetime-Care-Model which results in a smooth transition between all phases of life. We hope that other institutions may adapt and build upon it to create programs unique to their specific patient needs. PMID: 30507593 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
