Objectives: First, to compare the quality of life (QL) and perceived self-competence of children and adolescents with anorectal malformations or Hirschsprung disease with that of reference groups. Second, to identify predictors of QL.
Patients And Methods: A total of 491 patients with anorectal malformations or Hirschsprung disease were sent a questionnaire, which assessed QL (mental, physical), disease-specific functioning (defecation-related), perceived self-competence (self-esteem, athletic competencies, school attitude), and demographic characteristics (sex, age).
Objectives: The purpose of this work was to examine changes in quality of life, disease-specific functioning, and psychosocial competencies of children and adolescents (8-16 years of age) with anorectal malformations or Hirschsprung disease and to identify predictors of change in quality of life by testing an explanatory model in which background variables explained changes in quality of life via changes in disease-specific functioning and psychosocial competencies.
Methods: Questionnaires were administered to 129 patients with anorectal malformations and 121 patients with Hirschsprung disease within a 3-year interval. Clinical and sociodemographic background variables were measured on the first occasion.
Objective: The objective of this study was to examine the types of healthcare services used by children, adolescents, and adults with Hirschsprung Disease (HD) in relation to the severity of the initial defect (mild, severe), whether additional care was needed, the provision of information, transfer to adult care, and satisfaction with the care provided.
Methods: Three hundred twenty (71%) HD patients, ages 6 to 54, completed a questionnaire that assessed the use of healthcare services, the need for more healthcare, the provision of information, the transfer to adult care and satisfaction with the provided care.
Results: In 6 months, 45% of the children, 14% of the adolescents, and 15% of the adults consulted a medical specialist.
Objectives: The first aim was to identify the types of healthcare services used by children, adolescents, and adults with anorectal malformation (ARM) in relation to the severity of their disease and to examine whether additional care was needed. The second aim was to evaluate specific areas in the healthcare system, including provided information, transfer from pediatric to adult care, and satisfaction with the provided care.
Methods: Three hundred eighty-six (61%) patients with ARM, ages 6 to 52, completed a questionnaire that assessed their use of healthcare services and the need for additional services.
Objectives: The first objective was to compare the quality of life of adult patients with anorectal malformations (ARM) or Hirschsprung's disease (HD) and to compare both groups with healthy people. And the second objective was to examine the factors that affect the quality of life of patients with ARM or HD, using a theoretical model in which patients' background characteristics explain quality of life via mediating disease-specific functioning and psychosocial functioning.
Methods: Three hundred and forty-one patients completed a questionnaire, which assessed sociodemographic characteristics, disease-specific and psychosocial functioning, and quality of life.
