The Outcome of Regular Well‐Child Follow‐Up From Birth on Adolescent Well‐Being
Structured regular child health follow-up from birth has been demonstrated to have a positive impact on adolescent health and well-being. This phenomenon persists irrespective of parental socioeconomic status, encompassing both physiological and psychosocial dimensions. However, observed variations may also be indicative of unmeasured parental health-seeking behaviours, health literacy and investment. Consequently, the interpretation of results should be approached with a degree of caution.
