Cooperation with DISABKIDS

The sister projects KIDSCREEN and DISABKIDS

The KIDSCREEN project cooperated with the DISABKIDS project which was also funded by the European Commission. DISBAKIDS was aimed at developing health-related quality of life instruments for children and adolescents in the age groups 4-7 and 8 -16 with chronic conditions such as asthma, cerebral palsy, diabetes mellitus, epilepsy, juvenile arthritis, serious skin diseases, overweight problems and cystic fibrosis.

Both projects collaborated as closely as possible during the instrument development phases to ensure a joint methodology and a wide coverage.
