目的：本前瞻性研究评价婴幼儿生活质量问卷（ITQOL）的信度和效度，通过比较两组儿童早期患龋和无龋组的生活质量（QOL）。方法：150名儿童分为三组（平均年龄[月] 51 +/- 15）进行了研究。组I（OR）有广泛的龋齿，并在全身麻醉下等待几个月的治疗。第二组是因急性牙源性疼痛/脓肿而寻求急诊服务的儿童，第三组是无龋新患者的儿童。父母/照顾者进行ITQOL管理，从父母/监护人的角度评估儿童的身体，情感和社会福祉。结果：ITQOL的项目效度较高，信度较好。生活质量在疼痛和不适、行为和情绪、整体行为和对父母时间的影响方面存在显著差异（P
Objective: This prospective study evaluated the reliability and validity of the Infant and Toddler Child Quality of Life Questionnaire (ITQOL) by comparing quality of life (QOL) of two groups of children afflicted with early childhood dental caries with a caries-free group. Methods: A convenience sample of 150 children divided into three groups (mean age [months] 51 +/- 15) was studied. Group I (OR) had extensive dental caries and were waiting for several months for treatment under general anesthesia. Group II were children who sought emergency services for acute odontogenic pain/abscess, and group III were children who were caries-free new patients. Parents/caretakers were administered the ITQOL, which assesses a child's physical, emotional and social well being from the parent/guardian's perspective. Results: The ITQOL had high success in item validity with good reliability. Significant differences in QOL were noted for scales of pain and discomfort, behavior and moods, global behavior, and impact on parental time (P
