Details and patient eligibility

About

the study is offered to adolescents aged 12 to 17 and their families suspected of or suffering from Lyme barilliosis.

During inclusion, three interviews will be carried out for each family. This choice of the number of interviews per family seems the most appropriate to have a plurality of answers to the questions asked. Thus, these will have a duration of 30 min to 1 hour and will be carried out by an anthropologist. The first interview will be with the teenager. The second interview will then concern the parent(s). Finally, the last appointment will be with the teenager and his parents.

the study is offered to adolescents aged 12 to 17 and their families suspected of or suffering from Lyme barilliosis.

This choice of the number of interviews per family seems the most appropriate to have a plurality of answers to the questions asked.

Finally, the last appointment will be with the teenager and his parents.

After a few introductory questions concerning the socio-demographic characteristics of adolescents, their medical history and their exposure to ticks, the anthropologist will ask the semi-open questions.

As for the parent(s), the anthropologist will ask them questions directly related to Lyme borreliosis and the tick. Finally, questions will be proposed simultaneously during a joint interview with the teenager and his parents.
