ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the impact of the chronic kidney disease (CKD) on quality of life, from the children's and their parents' perspective, respiratory muscle strength, lung function, and functional capacity in children and adolescents. METHOD: Cross-sectional study of children with CKD aged 8 to 17 years. Those incapable of taking the tests were excluded. After an interview, quality of life by Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory) (PedsQLTM), muscular strength, pulmonary function tests, and the 6-minute walking test (6MWT) were applied. Student's t-test, ANOVA (difference in means), and Pearson's coefficient of correlation were used. The level of significance was set at 5%. RESULTS: Of the 40 patients, the mean distance walked at the 6MWT was 396 meters, and the mean final score at the quality of life test as perceived by the children and parents was 50.9 and 51, respectively. From the children's perspective, the transplanted patients had a higher quality of life score when compared to those undergoing hemodialysis (p < 0.001); those who practiced physical activity had better quality of life when compared to the sedentary children (p < 0.001). From the children's and the parents' perspectives, the male gender had a higher quality of life score (p < 0.05). There was a positive correlation between the distance walked at the 6MWT and age, height, final PedsQLTM, forced vital capacity (FVC), and forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1), as well as a negative correlation between FEV1/FVC and the distance walked. CONCLUSION: A significant reduction in the quality of life and the functional capacity was observed in children with CKD, influenced by the type of treatment, gender, and sedentary life style. .


OBJETIVOS: Avaliar repercussões da doença renal crônica (DRC) sobre a qualidade de vida na percepção das crianças e dos pais, força muscular respiratória, função pulmonar e capacidade funcional em crianças e adolescentes. MÉTODO: Estudo transversal de crianças e adolescentes com DRC de oito a 17 anos. Excluídas as incapazes de realizar os testes. Após entrevista, aplicou-se questionário de qualidade de vida (PedsQLTM), testes de força muscular, função pulmonar e teste de caminhada de 6 minutos (TC6 min). Foi utilizado o teste t de Student e ANOVA (diferenças de médias) e o coeficiente de correlação de Pearson. Considerou-se nível de significância de 5%. RESULTADOS: Dentre os 40 pacientes, a média da distância percorrida no TC6 min foi de 396 ± 71 metros, e a média do escore final de qualidade de vida percebida pelas crianças e pelos pais de 50,9 e 51, respectivamente. Na percepção das crianças, os transplantados apresentaram maior escore de qualidade de vida, comparados aos em hemodiálise (p < 0,001), e aos com atividade física e melhor qualidade de vida, comparadas às sedentárias (p < 0,001). Na percepção das crianças e dos pais, o sexo masculino apresentou maior escore de qualidade de vida (p < 0,05). Houve correlação positiva entre a distância percorrida no TC6 min e as variáveis idade, altura, PedsQLTM final da criança, capacidade vital forçada (CVF) e volume expiratório forçado no primeiro segundo (VEF1) e negativa entre VEF1/CVF e a distância percorrida. CONCLUSÃO: Observou-se redução significativa na qualidade de vida e na capacidade funcional em crianças com DRC influenciadas pelo tipo de tratamento, sexo e sedentarismo. .
