ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE One of the objective of the study was to analyze the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of Glasgow children's benefit inventory (GCBI). The other was to explore whether the Chinese version of GCBI could be used as a appropriate evaluation method on children's quality of life (QOL) after tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy (T&A). METHODS Firstly, seventy-three eligible children and their proxies were interviewed with this survey scale, the survey scale was assessed by split-half reliability, internal consistency, content validity and construct validity. Second, the Chinese version of GCBI used to evaluate the changes of these 73 children's QOL at 12 to 18 months after operation. RESULTS First, the reliability coefficient and the construct validity of the Chinese version of GCBI was satisfactory. Second, almost all children's QOL changed better after operation, it improved the most in physical aspects. CONCLUSION The Chinese version of GCBI had good reliability and validity, and is suitable for assessing QOL of children after T&A. It can help clinician evaluate therapeutic effect in pediatric otolaryngology.
