This study provides evidence from a systematic review of studies reporting dyad assessments to demonstrate the discrepancies in inter-rater agreement between child and proxy reporting of overall and domain-level paediatric HRQoL using generic preference-based measures. Further research to drive the inclusion of children in self-reporting their own HRQoL wherever possible and limiting the reliance on proxy reporting of children's HRQoL is warranted.
