EQ-5D-Y for the assessment of health-related quality of life among Taiwanese youth with mild-to-moderate chronic kidney disease

ConclusionsThe EQ-5D-Y discriminated among children with different level of CKD-related clinical burden, but the psychometric properties may be limited in some HRQOL dimensions. Further research will need to address factors that may threaten validity and reliability data provided by children and adolescents.
