Resumo: The Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) 4.0 is a questionnaire that evaluates the health related quality of life of children and adolescents, considering different aspects of their development, including the physical, emotional, social and educational. We verified the impact of demographic, social, and economic factors, as well as the family situation, on the health related quality of life of a group of school children of the city of São Paulo, Brazil. The PedsQL 4.0 was applied to 240 children and adolescents aged 2 to 18 and their respective parents. More than two thirds of the families were from lower social strata (C, D, and E). A statistically significant difference was observed in scores when evaluating the health related quality of life across socioeconomic strata and we observed statistically significant differences in the emotional, social, psychosocial and total scores. The PedsQL 4.0 scores obtained through interviews were satisfactory when compared with other urban populations of children and adolescents, probably due to the homogeneity of the population studied.

Estudamos o impacto dos fatores demográficos, sociais, econômicos e familiares, na qualidade de vida de um grupo de escolares da cidade de São Paulo, Brasil. Participaram do estudo 240 crianças e adolescentes de 2 a 18 anos. Mais de 2/3 das famílias eram provenientes de classes sociais C, D e E. Observamos que houve diferença estatisticamente significante nos aspectos emocional, social e no escore psicossocial e total, com escores mais elevados nas crianças das classes A + B, seguidas pela classe C e pela D + E, em todas as situações. Os escores obtidos usando-se a aplicação verbal do PedsQL 4.0 foram satisfatórios quando comparados a outras populações urbanas de crianças, e não refletiu significativamente na qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde da população estudada, provavelmente devido às características homogêneas encontradas em uma área urbana restrita da cidade de São Paulo.Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP) Escola Paulista de MedicinaUNIFESP, EPMSciELOEscola Nacional de Saúde Pública Sergio Arouca, Fundação Oswaldo CruzUniversidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)Klatchoian, Denise Ascenção [UNIFESP]Len, Claudio Arnaldo [UNIFESP]Terreri, Maria Teresa Ramos Ascensão [UNIFESP]Hilário, Maria Odete Esteves [UNIFESP]2015-06-14T13:41:34Z2015-06-14T13:41:34Z2010-03-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion631-636application/pdfhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0102-311X2010000300020Cadernos de Saúde Pública.
