Reliability and Validity of the Polish Version of the Esophageal-Atresia-Quality-of-Life Questionnaires to Assess Condition-Specific Quality of Life in Children and Adolescents Born with Esophageal Atresia.

The Polish versions of the EA-QOL questionnaires meet most psychometric criteria that confirm the EA-QOL questionnaires' reliability and validity. This study enables application of these questionnaires in future research among children with EA in Poland and participation in international multicenter studies focusing on advancing knowledge of condition-specific QOL in this population. Future cross-cultural research using larger sample sizes is still needed to better address the relationship between condition-specific and generic QOL, as well as the discriminative ability of the EA-QOL questionnaires.
