Allergic rhinitis is a common chronic condition in the paediatric population. No reports regarding the quality of life in children with allergic rhinitis in the Polish population have been found in the available literature. The aim of this study was to assess and compare the quality of life in patients with allergic rhinitis reported by children and their parents living in a city and in rural areas, and to evaluate the possible relationships between the quality of life and the severity of symptoms. Two hundred and eight children with allergic rhinitis participated in the study (89 girls, aged 6–17, mean age 11.7 ± 3). Children were asked to evaluate their rhinitis symptoms by using two scales: the Total 4 Symptom Score and the Visual Analogue Scale. The quality of life assessment included the KINDL-R questionnaire. Both for the T4SS and the VAS scale the severity of symptoms in children with seasonal rhinitis was significantly higher than in children allergic to perennial allergens. The quality of life total scores on the KINDL questionnaire was 45.6 ± 8.5 for the children and 73.7 ± 10.7 for the parents. In all the domains, except for physical health, the child’s quality of life was rated significantly higher by parents than by children. The biggest discrepancy occurred in the domains: social contacts and family. Allergic rhinitis can disrupt the quality of life. Parents tend to overestimate their children’s quality of life comparing to the children’s own assessment. The quality of life in children with allergic rhinitis correlated with the severity of the clinical symptoms of the disease. Evaluation of the quality of life in children is an essential issue in clinical investigation of patients with allergic rhinitis. It is of great importance to ask children themselves about their quality of life than rely only on parental opinion.

过敏性鼻炎的生活质量——波兰城乡人口儿童及其父母的观点。



过敏性鼻炎是儿科人群中常见的慢性疾病。现有文献中尚未发现有关波兰人群过敏性鼻炎儿童生活质量的报告。本研究的目的是评估和比较居住在城市和农村地区的儿童及其父母报告的过敏性鼻炎患者的生活质量,并评估生活质量与症状严重程度之间可能的关系。 208 名患有过敏性鼻炎的儿童参与了这项研究(89 名女孩,年龄 6-17 岁,平均年龄 11.7 ± 3 岁)。儿童被要求使用两种量表来评估他们的鼻炎症状:4 种症状总分和视觉模拟量表。生活质量评估包括 KINDL-R 问卷。无论是 T4SS 还是 VAS 量表,季节性鼻炎儿童的症状严重程度均显着高于对常年性过敏原过敏的儿童。 KINDL问卷的生活质量总分为儿童45.6±8.5分,家长73.7±10.7分。在所有领域,除了身体健康之外,父母对孩子生活质量的评价明显高于孩子。最大的差异发生在以下领域:社会交往和家庭。过敏性鼻炎会破坏生活质量。与孩子自己的评估相比,父母往往高估孩子的生活质量。过敏性鼻炎儿童的生活质量与疾病临床症状的严重程度相关。儿童生活质量的评估是过敏性鼻炎患者临床调查中的一个重要问题。 询问孩子们自己的生活质量比仅仅依赖父母的意见非常重要。
