Abstract:
Objective:To explore the impact role of Mandibular Distraction Osteogenesis technique (MDO) on the health quality of life in children with Pierre-Robin Sequence (PRS).
Methods:From January 2017 to August 2017, 44 cases of children with PRS admitted in children′s hospital of Nanjing Medical University were recruited. Glasgow Children′s benefit inventory(GCBI), Chinese version was used to study postoperative qualify of life in four aspects: physiology, emotions, learning, and vitality. Clinical data and the quality of life score were collected from the patients, and comparison analysis was performed.
Results:GCBI total score of the 44 cases of PRS treated with MDO surgery was 46, indicating that the overall quality of life was improved; Physical dimension score was 72, which was the highest, showing the most positive changes. GCBI total scores for the children with different types of PRS were type Ⅰ62, type Ⅱ43, type Ⅲ18, respectively. Nonparametric test showed that quality of life in typeⅠpatients was improved compared to typeⅢ. The difference was statistically significant (Z = -3.34, P=0.01). For the comparisons between type Ⅰ and Ⅱ and type Ⅱ and type Ⅲ, there was no statistically significant difference (P>0.05).
Conclusions:MDO plays a positive role in improving life of quality . Physiological conditions were the aspects that were improved most. The milder the case is, the more the postoperative quality of life is improved.
