Abstract
Aim. To study the indicators of the quality of life in school-age children with abdominal pain in the assessment of children and their parents.
Material and methods. The cross- sectional method collected data on the presence of gastroenterological complaints in 542 schoolchildren aged 7–17 years. To assess the quality of life of children, adapted Russian versions of the Child Health Questionnaire were used: parental (CHQ-PF28) and child (CHQ-PF45). The calculation of indicators was carried out according to the sections characterizing various areas of the child’s life, according to a 100-point system. The studies were approved by the ethics committee and the consent of the examined was obtained.
Results. The indicators of the parent and child versions of the questionnaire indicated that schoolchildren with abdominal pain had a worse quality of life on many scales compared to children who had no complaints.
However, the deterioration of life indicators in schoolchildren with abdominal pain, according to a survey of children, was noted on a signifi cantly larger number of scales, which may be a refl ection of their «social orphanhood».
Conclusion. Thus, a signifi cant decrease in the quality of life in schoolchildren with abdominal pain was established. There are diff erences in the assessment of children and their parents in assessing the quality of life of this category of patients.
