Popis: Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) is an important patient-reported outcome. However, HRQOL research in pediatric patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) in developing countries is limited. This cross-sectional study involved children with CKD who attended Dr. Sardjito General Hospital between January 2017 and September 2018. In total, 82 child-parent pairs were enrolled. Total HRQOL scores were significantly lower in children with Stages 3a–5 CKD than in children with Stages 1–2 CKD in the child (69.89 vs. 82.12, P = 0.004) and parent questionnaires (72.26 vs. 81.20, P = 0.02). The scores for the physical, school, and social function domains were significantly decreased. This study showed that children with Stages 3a–5 CKD had significantly lower HRQOL scores compared with children in the Stages 1–2 CKD group. Multidisciplinary teams can provide patient-centered and comprehensive management to optimize HRQOL scores during childhood and in future adult life.
