  • Parents experienced work absences due to caregiving, further diminishing family quality of life and income.
  • Analysis of socio-economic burdens on families of paediatric IBD patients highlights critical gaps in access to specialists.
  • Addressing the financial challenges associated with childhood IBD is essential for improving family welfare and support.
