摘要
This article describes the current scope of immigration to the United States, defines the different categories of immigrants, and describes the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention–mandated overseas and postarrival medical assessment of adolescent refugees. Guidelines for primary care physicians who care for refugee youth are provided, including diagnosis and treatment of common medical and mental health conditions. Special considerations in caring for this vulnerable population include acknowledging prior traumas, acculturation and challenges to education such as bullying, and adjustment to a new health care system that emphasizes preventive care in addition to curative medical care. © 2020 Elsevier Inc.
