Children’s Diseases, Family Management, and Quality of Life
Topic Information
Dear Colleagues,
Though awareness of the impact of a child’s disease on family quality of life (QoL) has recently been increasing, there is a need to measure this impact in the clinical setting to inform those providing support to the family. A child’s chronic health condition or disability can have an impact on the quality of life of the whole family. In the case of chronic diseases, such as genetic rare diseases, there is a reduction in quality of life, along with disability, depending on the type of disease. Potential topics for this Special Issue include all issues related to child diseases, family management, and quality of life, especially with rare and chronic diseases.
