Abstract

Adequate training in adolescent primary care is a challenge for pediatric residency programs. We examined residents' pediatric continuity clinic exposure to and comfort with adolescents, and their knowledge about best practices. Comfort was predicted by patient numbers, training level, and completing the adolescent rotation. Knowledge was predicted by completing the adolescent rotation.
