Abstract

Objective: Increased survival rate of patients with Transfusion-dependent Thalassemia (TDT) should be in line with their good quality of life (QoL). The study aimed to analyze the relationship between sociodemographic factors and clinical characteristics with the QoL of children with TDT. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at Hasan Sadikin General Hospital from December 2022 to February 2023. A total of 158 eligible subjects aged 5-18 years with TDT were included in the analysis. QoL assessment was performed using child self-report and parent-proxy report questionnaires, along with physical examination findings. Bivariate and multivariate analyses were conducted to analyze the data. Results: A total of 158 subjects who met the research criteria were included in the analysis. Of 58.9% of children with TDT had a low adherence rate to iron chelating therapy (ICT). School function had the lowest score in QoL based on child-self report and parent proxy. Gender (p<0,05) and adherence to ICT (p<0,05) were significantly associated with lower quality of life. Conclusion: Female and adherence to ICT were predictors of children with TDT's QoL.

与输血依赖型地中海贫血患儿生活质量相关的因素。

目的：提高输血依赖型地中海贫血（TDT）患者的存活率应与其良好的生活质量（QoL）相一致。本研究旨在分析社会人口学因素和临床特征与地中海贫血患儿生活质量之间的关系。研究方法2022 年 12 月至 2023 年 2 月在哈桑-萨迪金总医院进行了一项横断面研究。共有 158 名符合条件的 5-18 岁 TDT 受试者被纳入分析范围。使用儿童自我报告和家长代理报告问卷以及体检结果进行了 QoL 评估。对数据进行了二元和多元分析。结果共有 158 名符合研究标准的受试者被纳入分析范围。58.9%的TDT患儿对螯合铁疗法（ICT）的依从性较低。根据儿童自我报告和家长代理报告，学校功能在QoL中得分最低。性别（p结论：女性和对 ICT 的依从性是影响 TDT 患儿 QoL 的预测因素。
