Factors related to quality of life in children with chronic illness from their own perspectives: A cross-sectional study. J Pediatr Nurs 2025; 80:e218-e227. [PMID: 39743441 DOI: 10.1016/j.pedn.2024.12.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2024] [Revised: 12/20/2024] [Accepted: 12/20/2024] [Indexed: 01/04/2025]
Abstract
PURPOSE This study aims to explore the demographic, clinical, and psychological factors that influence the quality of life in children with chronic illnesses. DESIGN AND METHODS A descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted between February and July 2023. The sample consisted of 120 pediatric patients, aged 7 to 18 years, diagnosed with chronic illnesses and treated in outpatient and inpatient wards. Participants were selected using purposive sampling based on specific inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data were collected using 11 validated questionnaires covering demographic, clinical, and psychological factors, as well as the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL). Data were analyzed using t-tests, ANOVA, and multivariate linear regression to identify the most influential factors on children's quality of life, with a significance threshold set at p < 0.05. RESULTS Gender, age, duration of illness, disease symptoms, and pain level were significantly correlated with children's quality of life (p < 0.05). Another factors like self-efficacy, self-concept, and role function had a strong positive impact (p < 0.01), while coping mechanisms, resilience, self-esteem, and family support showed no significant effect. Duration of illness was the most influential factor (B = 0.969). CONCLUSIONS Children's quality of life is strongly influenced by factors like gender, age, illness duration, symptoms, self-efficacy, self-concept, and role function, with illness duration having the greatest impact. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS Healthcare providers should take a holistic approach, addressing clinical, demographic, and psychosocial factors, with special attention to children with longer illness durations, as this greatly affects their quality of life.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Children and young people affected by kidney failure experience complexities in their care. Little is known about the unique needs of this young patient population group living with a long-term condition. OBJECTIVE A meta-aggregation of all qualitative studies was conducted to identify experiences of supportive care among children and young people living with kidney failure. METHODS A systematic review of qualitative studies was conducted following the Joanna Briggs Institute meta-aggregation method. This review has been reported according to the PRISMA statement guidelines. Six electronic databases (CINAHL, Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, Proquest, PsycINFO, and Scopus) were comprehensively searched by an expert systematic review librarian using keywords and subject headings, from inception to September 2022. All studies were accessed using a predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Methodological quality assessment and data extraction performed. Qualitative findings accompanied by illustrative quotes from included studies were extracted and grouped into categories which created the overall synthesised findings. RESULTS A total of 34 studies were included in this review representing a total of 613 children and young people affected by kidney failure. There was a total of 190 findings which created 13 categories representing experiences of supportive care. The meta-aggregation developed five synthesised findings namely: 'physical needs', 'information and technology', 'treatment and healthcare', 'social needs' and 'psychological impacts'. CONCLUSION This systematic review identified that children and young people affected by kidney failure can experience a range of unmet supportive care needs in routine clinical services. Kidney failure impacted children and young people's self-identify, social and peer networks, introduced daily practical needs because of inherent physical and psychological burden due to the failure and associated treatments. Despite improvements in the medical management of kidney failure in children and young people, further attention is needed to optimise supported self-management in this young patient group.

Health-related quality of life for pediatric patients with end-stage kidney disease: A systematic review and meta-analysis of the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL). Hemodial Int 2024; 28:198-215. [PMID: 38468403 DOI: 10.1111/hdi.13138] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2023] [Revised: 11/17/2023] [Accepted: 01/30/2024] [Indexed: 03/13/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) studies demonstrate the impact of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on the physical and psychosocial development of children. While several instruments are used to measure HRQoL, few have standardized domains specific to pediatric ESRD. This review examines current evidence on self and proxy-reported HRQoL among pediatric patients with ESRD, based on the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) questionnaires. METHODS Following PRISMA guidelines, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis on HRQoL using the PedsQL 4.0 Generic Core Scale (GCS) and the PedsQL 3.0 ESRD Module among 5- to 18-year-old patients. We queried PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, CINAHL, and Cochrane databases. Retrospective, case-controlled, and cross-sectional studies using PedsQL were included. FINDINGS Of 435 identified studies, 14 met inclusion criteria administered in several countries. Meta-analysis demonstrated a significantly higher total HRQoL for healthy patients over those with ESRD (SMD:1.44 [95% CI: 0.78-2.09]) across all dimensional scores. In addition, kidney transplant patients reported a significantly higher HRQoL than those on dialysis (PedsQL GCS, SMD: 0.33 [95% CI: 0.14-0.53]) and (PedsQL ESRD, SMD: 0.65 [95% CI: 0.39-0.90]) concordant with parent-proxy reports. DISCUSSION Patients with ESRD reported lower HRQoL in physical and psychosocial domains compared with healthy controls, while transplant and peritoneal dialysis patients reported better HRQoL than those on hemodialysis. This analysis demonstrates the need to identify dimensions of impaired functioning and produce congruent clinical interventions. Further research on the impact of individual comorbidities in HRQoL is necessary for developing comprehensive, integrated, and holistic treatment programs.

Patient-reported outcome measures in children, adolescents, and young adults with palliative care needs-a scoping review. BMC Palliat Care 2023; 22:148. [PMID: 37798706 PMCID: PMC10557323 DOI: 10.1186/s12904-023-01271-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2023] [Accepted: 09/27/2023] [Indexed: 10/07/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Measuring outcomes facilitates evaluation of palliative services for children, adolescents, and young adults (CAYAs) with life-limiting and/or life-threatening (LL/LT) conditions. Implementation of patient-reported, proxy-reported, or patient-centered outcome measures (hereafter PROMs) is recommended to ensure palliative services. The purpose of this scoping review was to provide an overview of PROMs relevant for CAYAs living with LL/LT conditions eligible for pediatric palliative care (PPC). METHODS Arksey and O'Malley's 6-stage scoping review framework was used to guide the review. The identified citations had to report on PROMs in any context including CAYAs with LL/LT conditions up to 25 years of age. A systematic search of Medline, EMBASE, CINAHL, APA PsycInfo, Health and Psychosocial Instruments, and AMED took place in January 2021 and was updated in June 2022. Citations were screened independently by pairs of researchers. The scoping review protocol was registered, and peer-review published. RESULTS Of 3690 identified citations, 98 reports were included, of which the majority were from Western countries and about PROMs in CAYAs living with cancer or organ failure. A total of 80 PROMs were identified, assessing a range of phenomena, where quality of life and symptoms (especially pain) during the stage of ongoing care were the most frequent. There were only a few reports about outcome measures at time of diagnosis or in end-of-life care. CAYAs self-reported on the PROMs or collaborated with their parents in about half of the reports, while the remaining had proxies answering on behalf of the CAYAs. In the identified reports, PROMs were used to characterize a sample through cross-sectional or longitudinal research, and less often to assess effects of interventions. CONCLUSION The identified PROMs in the CAYA population eligible for PPC is characterized by studies in high-income countries during ongoing care, primarily in patients with cancer or organ failure. More research is needed in patients living with other LL/LT conditions, and during different stages of the disease course, especially at time of diagnosis, during transition to adulthood, and in end-of-life care. This scoping review of PROMs relevant for young patients eligible for PPC may inform future research about patient-/proxy-reported or patient-centered outcome measures in PPC. TRIAL REGISTRATION Review registration: ( https://osf.io/yfch2/ ) and published protocol (Holmen et al. Syst Rev. 10:237, 2021).

Abstract
AIM This study was conducted as a descriptive method in order to evaluate the attitudes towards illness of children with chronic diseases and their quality of life. METHOD The population of the study consisted of children with a chronic illness who were admitted to the pediatrics outpatient clinic of a hospital located in a province in the north-east of Turkey. The sample of the study consisted of 105 children who came to the hospital between October 2020 and June 2022, who met the criteria, and whose permission was obtained from themselves and their families. The study data were collected by using the 'Introductory Information Form', the 'Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) (8-12 and 13-18 years)' and the 'Child Attitude Towards Illness Scale (CATIS)'. Data were analyzed using the SPSS for Windows 22 package program. RESULTS The mean age of the children who participated in the study was 13.90 ± 2.55 and 73.3% of them were in the adolescent age group. The average PedsQL total score of the children participating in the research was 64.59 ± 18.99 and the average CATIS total score was 3.05 ± 0.71. CONCLUSION It was determined that as the quality of life of the children with chronic diseases in the study increased, their attitudes towards their diseases became more positive. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS While caring for children with chronic diseases, nurses should consider that supporting the child's quality of life positively affects the child's attitude towards the disease.

Abstract
Background Quality of life (QoL) is an important measure of disease burden and general health perception. The relationship between early chronic kidney disease (CKD) and QoL remains poorly understood. The Oxford Renal Study (OxRen) cohort comprises 1063 adults aged ≥60 years from UK primary care practices screened for early CKD, grouped according to existing or screen-detected CKD diagnoses, or biochemistry results indicative of reduced renal function (referred to as transient estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) reduction). Objectives This study aimed to compare QoL in participants known to have CKD at recruitment to those identified as having CKD through a screening programme. Methods Health profile data and multi-attribute utility scores were reported for two generic questionnaires: 5-level EuroQol-5 Dimension (EQ-5D-5L) and ICEpop CAPability measure for Adults (ICECAP-A). QoL was compared between patients with existing and screen-detected CKD; those with transient eGFR reduction served as the reference group in univariable and multivariable linear regression. Results Mean and standard deviation utility scores were not significantly different between the subgroups for EQ-5D-5L (screen-detected:0.785±0.156, n = 480, transient:0.779±0.157, n = 261, existing CKD:0.763±0.171, n = 322, p = 0.216) or ICECAP-A (screen-detected:0.909±0.094, transient:0.904±0.110, existing CKD:0.894±0.115, p = 0.200). Age, smoking status, and number of comorbidities were identified as independent predictors of QoL in this cohort. Conclusion QoL of participants with existing CKD diagnoses was not significantly different from those with screen-detected CKD or transient eGFR reduction and was similar to UK mean scores for the same age, suggesting that patient burden of early CKD is minor. Moreover, CKD-related comorbidities contribute more significantly to disease burden in earlier stages of CKD than renal function per se. Larger prospective studies are required to define the relationship between QoL and CKD progression more precisely. These data also confirm the essentially asymptomatic nature of CKD, implying that routine screening or case finding are required to diagnose it.

Abstract
Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) are quantitative assessments of a patient's perspective on their health and are derived directly from the patient, as opposed to clinician interpretation. PROs can serve as unique tools to improve health care providers' understanding of the patient's daily lived experience and highlight salient domains that are specific to children with chronic kidney disease (CKD). As such, PROs fill an important gap in achieving optimal health and well-being for children with CKD. However, several knowledge gaps remain in the implementation of PROs within both the clinical and research realms. This review provides a broad overview of PRO development, implementation for children with CKD, and highlights future directions and challenges.

[PMID: 33340460 PMCID: PMC9432262 DOI: 10.1016/j.jped.2020.10.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2020] [Revised: 09/30/2020] [Accepted: 10/10/2020] [Indexed: 01/15/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To meta-analyze health-related quality of life in pediatric patients with chronic kidney disease in comparison to healthy patients according to the dimensions of the PedsQL instrument. SOURCES OF DATA A systematic review was performed with meta-analysis for the mean difference in each of the health-related quality of life dimensions. The authors searched for ten scientific databases including PubMed, Scopus, SciELO, Science Direct, ProQuest, Google Scholar. Reproducibility by the Kappa index was evaluated, and Dersimonian and Laird's tests, RI coefficient, Begg statistic, Forest Plot, and sensitivity analysis were carried out. SUMMARY OF THE FINDINGS 17 investigations were included in the qualitative synthesis and 7 in the quantitative synthesis with a population of 1214 of both healthy and sick pediatric patients with 3-5 chronic kidney disease stages. The health-related quality of life in pediatric chronic kidney disease patients presented lower scores in all the evaluated dimensions: in the physical dimension the difference is of 13.6 points, in the emotional dimension 7.8, in the social dimension 8.2, in the school dimension 20.8, with the total difference being 17.7 points. CONCLUSION The findings of this study show that pediatric patients have lower health-related quality of life in all the evaluated dimensions, with the "school" dimension being the most affected and the "emotional" one the least. In this sense, we suggest monitoring the health-related quality of life of pediatric patients with chronic kidney disease so that interventions can be oriented to strengthen the affected dimensions, including adjustments to daily life and prevention of complications related to the disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is important to develop self-management behaviours in adolescents to prevent chronic kidney disease progression. OBJECTIVES This study evaluates the effect of a self-management program that was developed based on individual and family self-management theory to aid adolescents with chronic kidney disease in the acquisition of competencies in the management of their disease. DESIGN This is a randomized controlled study. PARTICIPANTS The study was conducted with 20 intervention and 20 control patients, who were treated at two hospitals in Ankara between December 2018 and May 2019. MEASUREMENTS Self-Management Assessment Form, Paediatric Quality of Life Inventory-Adolescent Form and clinical parameters. A training program, specific to chronic kidney disease, was administered over three sessions in a group training setting when the patients came to the clinic for follow-up. After the training program was completed, the patients were monitored for three months through home visits once every two weeks, totalling six visits. RESULTS Following the application of self-management training, a statistically significant difference was found self-management knowledge and behaviours, quality of life and anxiety mean scores of intervention and control group (p <.05), a significant decrease in only blood urea nitrogen among the clinical parameters when compared to the control group. CONCLUSIONS In this study, a self-management training program was developed based on Individual and Family Self-Management Theory, aiming to have a positive effect on the self-management behaviours of adolescents in the cognitive and psychosocial domains.

Abstract
PURPOSE This research aimed to evaluate Quality of life (QoL) in Egyptian children with idiopathic Nephrotic syndrome (INS) in comparison to healthy children and children with chronic non-renal illnesses. METHODS In this questionnaire-based study, 300 children were included, 100 with INS and 2 matched control groups: healthy group, and chronic non-renal illness group. QoL was assessed using the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL™ 4.0 Generic Core Scales) and the Generic Children's QoL Measure (GCQ). RESULTS All mean scores of PedsQL domains in INS group were significantly higher than chronic non-renal illness group and significantly lower than the healthy control group (p = < 0.001) for all and similar results reported also regarding GCQ scores in INS compared to diseased (p = 0.02) and healthy controls (p = 0.006). Steroid-resistant NS group had lowest scores in all domains (p = < 0.001) compared to other clinical phenotypes of NS group. The long duration of illness, higher number of relapses, high cumulative steroid dose, and high number of medications used were associated with lower PedsQL and GCQ scores (p < 0.001 for all) CONCLUSION: This is the first study to asses QoL in Egyptian children with INS and correlates QoL scores to clinical phenotypes and complications of the disease. Egyptian children with INS need strenuous efforts from pediatricians and psychiatrists to improve QoL. Both PedsQL™ 4.0 scale and GCQ are simple, convenient, and can be used in daily clinical practice to asses QoL in children with NS.

Introducción: La enfermedad renal en los niños causa diferentes cambios que pueden alterar su calidad de vida; por esta razón, es importante que el profesional de salud busque estrategias que contribuyan a disminuir las secuelas y mejorar la calidad de vida del niño. Objetivo: Caracterizar la calidad de vida de los niños de 8 a 18 años, con diagnóstico de enfermedad renal crónica, según el instrumento KIDSCREEN-27 de una institución de salud de la ciudad de Bogotá (Colombia). Método: Estudio descriptivo de corte transversal con una población de estudio de 62 niños con diagnóstico de enfermedad renal crónica con edades entre 8 y 18 años que asistieron a la consulta de nefrología pediátrica. Resultados: Se analizaron cinco dimensiones, donde cada una tuvo un puntaje ponderado mayor a 70, que se relaciona con una buena calidad de vida; la dimensión con menor puntaje, la de actividad física, tuvo un puntaje de 70,1, y la dimensión de estado de ánimo y sentimientos obtuvo el mayor puntaje, 80,8. Conclusiones: La enfermedad renal crónica puede alterar la calidad de vida, sobre todo en la dimensión de actividad física y entorno escolar. Es primordial que se planteen programas que tengan en cuenta las cinco dimensiones, pero especialmente las que obtuvieron menor puntaje, con el fin de mejorar la calidad de vida de los niños con esta enfermedad.

Abstract
The aim of this randomized controlled trial was to compare the effectiveness of psychoeducation versus cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in the management of depression among renal dialysis patients. A sample of 130 dialysis patients participated in the study and they were assigned at random to one of two therapies: psychoeducation (N = 65) or CBT (N = 65). Hamilton depression rating scale was completed by the participants in both groups prior to the therapies and after completion. Both therapies were effective in the management of depression, although psychoeducation was superior. Psychoeducation is recommended over CBT in the management of depression among renal dialysis patients.
