About this study

Official title: Impact of Chronic Kidney Disease on Children Functional Capacity and Their Families' Quality of Life: A Cross Sectional Study

Based on the available literatures, previous studies have investigated the impact of CKD and dialysis on patient's health among adult and elderly population. As far as we know, this is the first empirical study that investigates the impact of CKD on children functional capacity and their families QOL.

Read the detailed description

The current study will be done to investigate the long term effect of the CKD itself on different dimensions of the child health to understand the unique characteristics of pediatric CKD. Also, it will be beneficial for designing a comprehensive physical therapy protocol for prevention of different complications and to improve their wellbeing healthcare. Additionally, it will be beneficial to determine the family and parental stresses and to build the rehabilitation plan for the child considering the possible family issues regarding the child condition.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. functional capacity

    6 minute walking test is commonly used to evaluate functional capacity in children with CKD. It is a simple, practical, reliable, and valid measure of submaximal exercise capacity in healthy children and children with chronic disease or neuromuscular disorders or cardiopulmonary disease

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. muscle strength

    Hand grip strength HGS is a noninvasive and reliable method for assessment of muscle power and nutritional status in CKD children

    Measured: 6 months

  2. quality of life of children

    The Arabic version of the PedsQLTM 4.0 Generic Core Scales version proved to be understandable and feasible to use. It showed good reliability for healthy children and children with chronic medical conditions and their parents.

    Measured: 6 months

  3. quality of life of families of children with CKD

    The PedsQL FIM appears to be a useful tool for the assessment of family impact on children with ESRD

    Measured: 6 months
