Analysis of the Reliability and Validity of the Chinese Version of CC-QoL

China180 participantsStarted 2023-03-05

Plain-language summary

At present, there is no research scale designed for the quality of life of children with chronic cough in China, most of them use the cough scale designed for adults to evaluate the quality of life of children. In China, more and more attention has been paid to evaluate and improve the quality of life of children with chronic cough, but cough specific quality of life measurement tools for adults and parents are mostly used, and the Chinese translation version of CQLQ and LCQ is still the main method. There is still no cough specific quality of life measurement tool for children with chronic cough in China. Cc-qol, a specific scale for chronic cough in children, has not been promoted, and no relevant verification of the applicability, validity and reliability of the Chinese version has been found. Therefore, this study aims to verify and compare the applicability, reliability and validity of CC-QOL Chinese version in China through questionnaire survey and follow-up of children with chronic cough.

Questions worth asking your doctor

Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.

1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.

Questions for the trial coordinator

The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.

1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?

A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
