Abstract
Up to the end of the twentieth century the care of children and adolescents was carried out by pediatricians in pediatric practices and pediatric clinics. With the change of the further training ordnance of the German Federal Medical Association the development of the discipline to medical specialist for pediatric and adolescent medicine was accomplished. An analysis of the situation ascertained that the structures were newly named but the orientation with respect to the contents did not always correspond to the title of the institution. This was true for the total spectrum of adolescent medical care. This article presents the abridged version of an inventory on adolescent medicine in Germany, including proposed solution strategies, which was compiled by the Committee on Adolescent Medicine of the German Academy for Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine (DAKJ). This includes the unabridged introduction; part 1 (adolescent medicine in German pediatric clinics), part 2 (adolescent medicine in pediatric practices), part 3 (adolescent medicine in social pediatric centers) and part 4 (adolescent medicine in the public healthcare service) are condensed to contain only the essential aspects but are presented without changes to the content.
