About this study

Official title: Translation and Validation of the Hirschsprung and Anorectal Malformation Quality of Life (HAQL) Questionnaire in a Danish Hirschsprung Population

The Hirschsprung and anorectal malformation quality of life (HAQL) questionnaire is a disease-specific quality of life questionnaire with 5 different elements (3 questionnaires for patients (categories: age 8-11, 12-16, and >17 years) and two questionnaires for parents of patients (categories: patients aged 8-11 and 12-16 years).

In the first part of this study, the questionnaires will be translated via forward-backward-translation, culturally adapted and evaluated for content validity.

In the second part of the study, the questionnaires will be validated in a cohort of all eligible Hirschsprung patients from Odense University Hospital from 1985-2014.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hirschsprung Disease, run by University of Southern Denmark at 1 site in Denmark.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Nov 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Denmark. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Internal Consistency (IC) assessed by Cronbach's Alpha (time frame: Day 1). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Nov 2022.
