Parents of 258 children with acute sinusitis completed the PRSS at the time of diagnosis, as a diary at home, and at the follow-up visit at day 10 to 12. Based on psychometric results and additional parent feedback, we revised the scale. We evaluated the revised version in 185 children with acute sinusitis. RESULTS: Correlations between the scale and reference measures on the day of enrollment were in the expected direction and of the expected magnitude. PRSS scores at the time of presentation correlated with radiographic findings (P < .001), functional status (p |
