ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
Improving or maintaining the quality of life of the family of children treated with long term continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or noninvasive ventilation (NIV) is a major concern; but studies are scarce. The aim of the study was to evaluate the impact of long term CPAP or NIV in children on anxiety, depression, quality of sleep, and quality of life of their parents.METHODS:
Validated questionnaires evaluating anxiety and depression (hospital anxiety and depression scale), sleep quality (Pittsburgh sleep quality index), daytime sleepiness (Epworth sleepiness scale), and parents' quality of life (PedsQL family impact module) were completed by parents of children who were started on CPAP/NIV before (M0) and after 6-9 months (M6) of treatment.RESULTS:
The questionnaires of 36 parents (30 mothers, 6 fathers) of 31 children were analyzed. For the entire group, no significant change was observed in anxiety, depression, sleep quality, daytime sleepiness, and quality of life between M0 and M6. When analyzing questionnaire class changes between M0 and M6 anxiety was relieved in 23% of parents and worsened in 29%, depression was relieved in 14% and worsened in 20%, sleep quality improved in 43% and worsened in 27%, sleepiness improved in 26% and worsened in 17%, with no change in the other parents.CONCLUSION:
Long term CPAP/NIV in children had no significant effect on parents' anxiety, depression, sleep quality, and quality of life.
