To determine the validity of the validate the adult patient-reported outcome measure tools, the Michigan Retinal Degeneration Questionnaire (MRDQ) and Michigan Vision-Related Anxiety Questionnaire (MVAQ), in adolescent patients with inherited retinal diseases (IRDs). Ninety-one adolescent patients diagnosed with IRDs were recruited at the Hospital for Sick Children (University of Toronto) and the Kellogg Eye Center (University of Michigan). The patients were administered the MRDQ, MVAQ, and Patient Health Questionnaire-4 (PHQ-4). Test-retest variability was assessed in eighteen patients within 14 days of the initial administration. Adolescent responses were analyzed for validity and reliability. As a further validation step, comparisons were made to adult data from the original MRDQ and MVAQ studies to ensure consistency in response ranges. The existing MRDQ and MVAQ content and format could accurately detect the impact of IRD on activities of daily living in adolescents with IRDs. No floor/ceiling effects were identified, test-retest reliability was established (r = 0.73–0.86), and no items were excluded after differential item functioning analysis. Domain and trait associations with visual acuity and IRD phenotypes were similar between adolescents and adults. The MRDQ and MVAQ are psychometrically validated questionnaires for which we have shown validity for use in adolescent patients with IRDs. |
