Resumo: | ABSTRACT: | Purpose: The high prevalence and severity of congenital toxoplasmosis in Brazil, with several affected individuals progressing to low vision, emphasize the importance of evaluating their quality of life. In this study, the Children’s Visual Function Questionnaire (CVFQ) was adapted to the sociocultural context of Brazilian children, and its psychometric properties were investigated for evaluating the vision-related quality of life of these individuals. Methods: This was a nested cross-sectional epidemiological study that prospectively monitored a cohort of 142 preschool children at a single referral university hospital in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. All children underwent complete ophthalmological examination, including visual acuity testing and binocular indirect ophthalmoscopy. Questionnaires were applied to their parents and caregivers to evaluate quality of life perception, as well as socioeconomic status of their families. Psychometric properties of the quality of life scale were evaluated by multivariate statistical analyses. Results: Adaptation to the Brazilian version of CVFQ-7 resulted in CVFQ-BR-toxo, a questionnaire for evaluating the perception of parents/caregivers about the vision-related quality of life of preschool children with congenital toxoplasmosis. The following six subscales wereidentified based on description, variability structure, and interpretation/grouping of items: general health, visual acuity, visual performance/functional vision, personal and social behavior, impact on family, and treatment. Children with low vision related to congenital toxoplasmosis had significantly lower scores for the following subscales: visual acuity (p=0.004), visual performance/functional vision (p=0.008), impact on family (p=0.001), and overall health (p=0.001). Conclusion:Psychometric properties were appropriate concerning the validity of the quality of life construct. CVFQ-BR-toxo could demonstrate the impact of vision impairment on families of children with congenital toxoplasmosis. |

Este estudo tem como objetivo adaptar o Children’s Visual Function Questionnaire (CVFQ) para a realidade sociocultural de crianças brasileiras e investigar suas propriedades psicométricas para avaliação da qualidade de vida relacionada à visão nesses indivíduos. Métodos: Estudo epidemiológico transversal aninhado de coorte de 142 crianças pré-escolares acompanhadas prospectivamente em hospital universitário de referência em Belo Horizonte, Brasil. Todas foram submetidos a exame oftalmológico completo, incluindo medida da acuidade visual e oftalmoscopia binocular indireta. Questionários foram aplicados aos pais e cuidadores, para avaliar a percepção da qualidade de vida, bem como o nível sócio-econômico das famílias. Análise estatística multivariada foi realizada para avaliar as propriedades psicométricas da escala de qualidade de vida. Resultados: Adaptações na versão brasileira do Children’s Visual Function Questionnaire-7 originaram o Children’s Visual Function Questionnaire-7-BR-toxo, um questionário para avaliar a percepção de pais/cuidadores sobre a qualidade de vida relacionada à visão de crianças pré-escolares com toxoplasmose congênita. Pela descrição, estrutura de variabilidade, e interpretação do agrupamento dos itens do questionário adaptado, identificaram-se seis subescalas: saúde geral, capacidade visual, desempenho visual/visão funcional, comportamento social e pessoal, impacto na família e tratamento. Crianças com baixa visão associada a toxoplasmose congênita tiveram escores mais baixos nas seguintes subescalas: acuidade visual (p=0,004), desempenho visual/visão funcional (p=0,008), impacto na família (p=0,001) e saúde geral (p=0,001). Conclusão: As propriedades psicométricas foram adequadas no tocante à validade do construto. O Children’s Visual Function Questionnaire-7-BR-toxo foi capaz de registrar o impacto da deficiência visual nas famílias de crianças com toxoplasmose congênita.engUniversidade Federal de Minas GeraisUFMGBrasilMED - DEPARTAMENTO DE PEDIATRIAArquivos Brasileiros de OftalmologiaQuality of lifeLow VisionUveitisToxoplasmosis, CongenitalChildQuality of lifeLow VisionUveitisCongenital toxoplasmosisChildPsychometric properties of cvfq7-br-toxo to evaluate vision-related quality of life in children with congenital toxoplasmosis in brazilPropriedades psicométricas do CVFQ7-BR-toxo para avaliar a qualidade de vida relacionada à visão em crianças com toxoplasmose congênita no Brasilinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://doi.org/10.5935/0004-2749.20220007Jacqueline DominguestibúrcioDaniel Vitor Vasconcelos-santosGalton Carvalho VasconcelosEricka Viana Machado CarellosRoberta Maia de Castro RomanelliJose Nélio JanuarioGlaucia Manzan Queiroz Andradeapplication/pdfinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Institucional da UFMGinstname:Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)instacron:UFMGLICENSELicense.txtLicense.txttext/plain; charset=utf-82042https://repositorio.ufmg.br/bitstream/1843/60908/1/License.txtfa505098d172de0bc8864fc1287ffe22MD51ORIGINALPsychometric properties of CVFQ7-BR-toxo pdfa.pdfPsychometric properties of CVFQ7-BR-toxo pdfa.pdfapplication/pdf172552https://repositorio.ufmg.br/bitstream/1843/60908/2/Psychometric%20properties%20of%20CVFQ7-BR-toxo%20pdfa.pdfff80f517a5cc561dd98bd985e8fb4b6fMD521843/609082023-11-13 19:51:42.399oai:repositorio.ufmg.br:1843/60908Repositório de PublicaçõesPUBhttps://repositorio.ufmg.br/oaiopendoar:2023-11-13T22:51:42Repositório Institucional da UFMG - Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)false |
