Validity and reliability testing of the Toddler and Infant (TANDI) Health Related Quality of Life instrument for very young children.

The TANDI was found to be valid and reliable for use with children aged 1-36 months in South Africa. It is recommended that the TANDI be included in future research to further investigate HRQoL and the impact of interventions in this vulnerable age group. It is further recommended that future testing be done to assess the feasibility, clinical utility, and cross-cultural validity of the measure and to include international input in further development.
