Description
Summary:The article is dedicated to the study of QUALIN questionnaire of infants’ quality of life born in critical state. 47 children were examined: 19 were born in critical state and 28 were conditionally healthy. It was shown that children born in critical state and treated in intensive care departments for a long time have lower quality of life during the first year of life than healthy children. A decrease of quality of life in children born in critical state may be related to the worse health state after severe diseases.Key words: infants, quality of life, QUALIN questionnaire.(Voprosy sovremennoi pediatrii — Current Pediatrics. 2010;9(2):20-22)
