Quality of life was assessed in 108 epileptic children (6-15 years) using a hindi translation of Quality of Life in Children with Epilepsy (QOLCE) questionnaire. The questionnaire consist of 76 items with 16 subscales covering five domains of life: physical function, social function, cognition, emotional and behavioral well being. Overall score was 62.62±21.32. Chronbachs-a for all 13 multi-item subscales was above 0.70, indicating good internal consistency and reliability. Pearson correlation revealed good construct validity. Overall quality of life was affected by age, type of epilepsy, seizure frequency and maternal education (P<0.05). Energy levels, language and attention (P<0.05) were better in older children whereas younger children had better self esteem and lower levels of anxiety. Seizure frequency compromised all fields except stigma, attention, and energy levels (P>0.05).
使用癫痫患儿生活质量(QOLCE)问卷的印地语翻译版本,对108名6至15岁的癫痫儿童的生活质量进行了评估。该问卷由76个项目组成,有16个分量表,涵盖生活的五个领域:身体功能、社会功能、认知、情感和行为健康。总体得分为62.62±21.32。所有13个多项目分量表的克朗巴赫α系数均高于0.70,表明具有良好的内部一致性和可靠性。皮尔逊相关性显示出良好的结构效度。总体生活质量受年龄、癫痫类型、发作频率和母亲教育程度的影响(P<0.05)。年龄较大的儿童在精力水平、语言和注意力方面(P<0.05)表现较好,而年龄较小的儿童自尊水平较高,焦虑程度较低。发作频率对除耻辱感、注意力和精力水平之外的所有领域都有影响(P>0.05)。
