Through study completion, an average of 6 months
Disease flares at rescheduled visits
Through study completion, an average of 6 months

Study Arms (1)
Home-monitoring arm
EXPERIMENTALAfter inclusion, participants will skip one regular 3-monthly control visit and instead complete an online EQ-5D-Y-5L and JAMAR questionnaire. 5-7 months after inclusion, participants will be followed-up at the hospital and complete a questionnaire about their experiences with home-monitoring.
Interventions
Questionnaires for home-monitoring will be send to the participants 11 weeks after the baseline visit via e-mail using Castor EDC and can be completed using a computer, tablet or smartphone. Home-monitoring can be done together with a parent or guardian, if needed.
