contents Brazilian adaptation of the dizziness handicap inventory for the pediatric population: reliability of the results Maria da Glória Canto de Sousa Orlanda Cruz Amanda Nery Santos Cristina Ganança Leandro Almeida Eduardo Pondé de Sena Salud Child Dizziness Questionnaire Quality of life Reproducibility Purpose: To evaluate the reliability of the results in an adapted version of the Brazilian Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) adapted for children. Methods: 1) semantic adaptation of DHI, first version, for child population; 2) appreciation of DHI by speech therapy judges for semantic appropriateness of the adapted version; application of the adapted version of DHI in 119 children with dizziness report; 4) application of DHI, adapted version, in 119 children suffering from dizziness symptoms; 5) test/re-test of 34 children. Results: In the group, there were higher average total scores in girls. There was no association between the scores of the Dizziness Handicap Inventory-Child/Adolescent (DHI-CA) and the age of the children. Adequate levels of internal consistency and stability of the results were verified in the full scale and the three subscales. Conclusion: DHI-CA appeared to be capable of reliably quantifying the impact of dizziness on quality of life of school-age children and adolescents, and the reliability of results is a first contribution to the validation of this instrument. 2015 artículo científico 2317-6431 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=391544064008 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3915 Audiology - Communication Research application/pdf Academia Brasileira de Audiologia Audiology - Communication Research (Brasil) Num.4 Vol.20
