The development of the clinical assessment tool "Health and Everyday Functioning in Young Children with Cancer".

The questions correlate well with known research results and highlight areas that are important for health and everyday life for young children with cancer. This tool, based on children's experiences, can be used by both parents and health care personnel such as nurses to highlight aspects of health and function in everyday life for the young child with cancer that otherwise might be missed. This novel approach using the ICF-CY could be used to guide the delivery of care towards living an everyday life with a long-term illness.
