Data from 997 pediatric liver transplant (LT) recipients were used to model demographic and medical variables as predictors of lower levels of health related quality of life (HRQOL). Data were collected through Studies of Pediatric Liver Transplantation (SPLIT) Functional Outcomes Group (FOG) project. Patients were between 2-18 years of age and survived LT by at least 12 months. Parents and children (age ≥ 8 years) completed PedsQL ™ 4.0 Generic Core and Cognitive Functioning Scales at one time point. Demographic and medical variables were obtained from SPLIT. HRQOL scores were categorized “poor” based on lower 25% of scores for each measure. Logistic regression models were generated. Single-parent households (OR 1.94, CI 1.13 – 3.33, p=0.017), anti-seizure medications (OR 3.99, CI 1.26 – 12.70, p=0.019) and number of days hospitalized (OR 1.03, CI 1.01 – 1.06, p=0.0067) were associated with lower self-reported HRQOL. Parent data identified increasing age at transplant, age 5-12 years at survey, hospitalization > 21 days at LT, re-operations, diabetes and growth failure at LT as additional predictors of generic HRQOL. Male gender, single-parent households, higher bilirubin levels at LT and use of anti-seizure medication predicted lower cognitive function scores. HRQOL following pediatric LT is related to medical and demographic variables.
