Bright Futures Adolescent Visit Forms Introduction

Early Adolescent Visits
Bright Futures Previsit Questionnaires and Supplemental Questionnaires for 11- to 14-year-olds must accommodate youth at very different developmental stages—prepubertal children, early and late puberty, and even adolescent mothers. Rather than specify an age, there are 2 sets of Previsit and Supplemental Questionnaires for these 4 visits. Practitioners can decide which forms are most appropriate for their patient populations and use them accordingly. Some practitioners feel that the Early Adolescent Visit questionnaires are appropriate for all youth in their practice, while others feel it would be helpful to use different forms for different patient groups.

Bright Futures Previsit Questionnaire—Older Child/Younger Adolescent Visits does not include questions about sexual behaviors and is intended for use with younger or less physically mature youth. If youth completing this form do have concerns or questions about sexuality, sexually transmitted infections, and pregnancy, there are boxes in the patient concerns area of this form for them to check. Bright Futures Supplemental Questionnaire—Older Child/Younger Adolescent Visits does not ask questions about sexual behavior, although it does include a question that asks if the youth has discussed “relationships and sex” with a parent.

Bright Futures Previsit Questionnaire—Early Adolescent Visits does ask about oral sex and sexual intercourse. If the question on oral sex or sexual intercourse is answered in the affirmative, there are additional questions at the end of Bright Futures Supplemental Questionnaire—Early Adolescent Visits that help the practitioner determine risk status. Neither 11- to 14-year questionnaire asks the more detailed risk assessment questions for syphilis and HIV (eg, “Do you trade sex for money or drugs or have sex partners who do?”). In this age group, these questions can be asked face-to-face when appropriate.

Middle and Late Adolescent Visits
The 15- to 21-year adolescent visits have been grouped into 2 age-based set of questionnaires, 15 to 17 Year Visits (middle adolescence) and 18 to 21 Year Visits (late adolescence). The risk assessment is appropriate for all of these visits.
