Objectives: The study aims to assess the quality of life (QOL) in newly diagnosed asthmatic children and their caregivers before and after treatment using mini pediatric asthma quality of life questionnaire (PAQLQ) and pediatric asthma caregivers quality of life questionnaire (PACQLQ) and to compare their quality of life with ACS (asthma clinical severity score). Materials and Methods: This prospective study was done among 99 children and their caregivers, who were interviewed using mini PAQLQ and PACQLQ on 2 occasions: at the time of inclusion and 4 weeks after treatment. During their clinic visit, asthma clinical severity scoring was done, and children were treated according to GINA (Global Initiative for Asthma). Results: After 4 weeks of treatment, there was a significant change in all domains of mini PAQLQ ( P < .001) and PACQLQ ( P < .001). In children, the change in the emotional domain after treatment was minimal when compared to other domains. When ACS was compared with mini PAQLQ and PACQLQ, children with well-controlled asthma had a better quality of life than partially-controlled asthmatic children ( P < .001) and there wasn’t a significant change in the quality of life of the caregivers after treatment ( P = .321) Conclusion: During treatment, QOL of newly diagnosed asthmatic children and their caregivers showed significant improvement but children lagged in their emotional domain. Despite medical intervention, these children also require psychological support and counseling. Also, caregivers didn’t perceive a change in their QOL when compared with ACS and it indicates that parent’s and child health-related quality of life should be taken as independent dimensions.

Objectives: To assess Quality of Life (QOL), and its associated factors between asthmatic children and their caregivers, and determine the correlation between QOL of patients and caregivers, at King Abdulaziz University Hospital (KAUH), Jeddah. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among eligible participants who attended Pediatric Pulmonology Outpatient Clinic of KAUH, during 2016/2017. A data collection sheet was used. The standardized Arabic version of Pediatric Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (PAQLQ) for children aged 7 - 17 years was completed. The caregiver who accompanied the child fulfilled the Pediatric Asthma Caregiver’s Quality of Life Questionnaire (PACQLQ). Descriptive and inferential analyses were performed. Results: QOL scores were reduced among asthmatic children who had other type of allergy, or a family history of allergies. Uncontrolled management of asthma presented by frequent waking-up at night, frequent wheezes, visiting Emergency Rooms (ER), or hospital admission was associated with poor QOL of both asthmatic children and their caregivers. There is a positive correlation between child symptoms domain of PAQLQ and emotional domain of PACQLQ of their caregivers. Conclusion: Uncontrolled asthma was associated with poor QOL of asthmatic child and caregivers. Better management of asthma is recommended to improve their QOL.
