Abstract

Primary immunodeficiency is a group of heterogeneous genetic diseases characterized by disorder of immuno- system, which greatly affects the quality of life (QoL) of patients.


Objectives: Investigating the quality of life of children with primary immunodeficiency by using Ped QL 4.


Method: A cross sectional-study, using the quality of life for children Peds QL 4.0, was implemented to investigate the quality of life of 52 children diagnosed with primary immunodeficiency.


Results:The ratio of male/female was 6/1, average age was 7,2 ± 4,0, patients aged 2-4 ranked highest with 38,5%. Among them, patients with lymphoid B were 63,5%, patients with phagocytosis disorder were 23,1%,


patients with complex type were 23,1%. The QoL score in terms of studying of patients aged 13-18 was higher than the rest of patients (p = 0,01< 0,05). The QoL related to studying, physical health and total score of patients with lymphoid B were higher than the other types of primary immunodeficiency (p < 0,05). The QoL related to studying, physical health and total score of primary immunodeficiency patients were lower than those of healthy children (p < 0,05).


Conclusion: The QoL related to studying, physical health and total score of primary immunodeficiency patients were signigicantly lower than those of healthy children. It is neccesary to evaluate the QoL of primary immunodeficiency patients at different times and longer duration after treatment.
