CDDUX: A Disease‐specific Health‐related Quality‐of‐life Questionnaire for Children With Celiac Disease

Abstract

Children with a better perception of their own health status have a higher score on the CDDUX questionnaire. The whole group seems to have a lower quality of life than the healthy reference group on all domains of the DUX-25. The new disease-specific questionnaire CDDUX provides information about how children with CD think and feel about their illness. The questionnaire may enable researchers and clinicians to determine the consequences of this illness and the effects of clinical interventions on several aspects of daily living.
