Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study was to examine the differences in the HEALTH RELATED QUALITY OF LIFE and the SELF CARE and social function in daily life of children with different disabilities.Methods: One hundred and two children with physical, emotional and cognitive disabilities (cerebral palsy, MENTAL RETARDATION, and HEARING LOSS) and 28 children age matched as a control group were included in this study for the comparison. The Pediatric Evaluation of DISABILITY Inventory (PEDI) was used to evaluate the independence and participation of children in daily life activities. The Turkish version of the Child Health Questionnaire-Parent form (CHQ - PF50) was used to evaluate the HEALTH RELATED QUALITY OF LIFE.Findings: All 3 groups were different from the control group in terms of self-care and the social domains according to the PEDI results (P<0.05). Children with CEREBRAL PALSY (CP) were more dependent in the areas of self-care and mobility activities (P<0.05). The main difference was found in global general health (GGH), physical functioning (PF), the emotional impact on the parent (PE) subsections of the CHQ-PF50 between the CP and the HEARING LOSS groups; the role of the physical (RP) and emotional behavior (BE) subsections between the MENTAL RETARDATION (MR) and the CP groups, and the BE and mental health (MH) subsections between the MR and the HEARING LOSS (HL) groups (P<0.05).Conclusion: All the children with disabilities were different from the control group in their quality of life, SELF CARE and social function. However the status of the children with MR and HL were parallel between each other in their HEALTH RELATED QUALITY OF LIFE, SELF CARE and social function. On the other hand, the most affected and dependent group was children with CP. The results will provide guidelines for healthcare professionals in implementing effective rehabilitation programs, especially to those with CEREBRAL PALSY, to reduce the level of strain and increase the HEALTH RELATED QUALITY OF LIFE, SELF CARE and social function of children with different disabilities.
