Multidimensional Characterization of Dyspnea in Children

In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

There is no specific tool existing to describe dyspnea in children in a multidimensional way. It has been shown in adult studies that multidimensional dyspnea evaluation scales are well correlated to quality of life and respiratory function impairments. The investigators hypothesis is that using multidimensional dyspnea evaluation scales could allow for a more systematic and precise evaluation of this symptom in children, thus improving management and follow-up of patients presenting with acute (asthma attack, infectious diseases) and chronic (cystic fibrosis, primary ciliary diskynesia, neuromuscular diseases) respiratory insufficiency.
