Understanding the factors that affect changes in quality of life over time is particularly important to provide adequate care. METHODS: Questionnaires were administered to 261 patients (77 percent),with a three-year interval. Background characteristics, including demographic and clinical variables, and psychosocial variables (i.e., self-esteem, mastery, social support, disease cognition) were measured on one occasion. Generic and disease-specific quality of life were measured twice. RESULTS: On average patients indicated no change in quality-of-life level after three years. However, variance in the change scores revealed individual variation, indicating the presence of patients who improved and patients who deteriorated. Patients who were female, older, have other congenital diseases, or a stoma reported poorer quality of life over time. The psychosocial variable “disease cognition“ most strongly affected the change in quality of life of patients with anorectal malformations or Hirschsprung’s disease. CONCLUSIONS: Our results could alert clinicians to patients who are at risk for quality-of-life deterioration and might therefore be in need for extra care. Our findings illustrate the importance of psychosocial functioning for enhancing the quality of life over time of these patients.展开更多
