Abstract

Research that measures the increasing impact of chronic disease on the quality of life of children and adolescents. This integrative literature review sought to identify emotional, physical and social aspects related to disease and its treatment, which impact the quality of life of children and adolescents with chronic kidney disease, from 2000 to 2013. Identifying these aspects may help build specific valid and reliable instruments. Articles were selected from the databases: LILACS, SCOPUS and PUBMED. The sample was comprised of 17 articles, described according to objectives, design, method, results and level of scientific evidence. The results indicated that it is still difficult to adequately define the domains and dimensions of quality of life impacted by chronic disease, relevant to this group, consensually identified among adults.
