Abstract in Portuguese
O diagnóstico de uma doença crônica na infância, como é o caso da doença de Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT), pode desencadear grandes mudanças em aspectos físicos, psicológicos e sociais, comprometendo a qualidade de vida e podendo desencadear problemas de comportamento. Neste sentido, este estudo buscou avaliar a qualidade de vida e indicadores comportamentais de pacientes com CMT. Foram avaliadas 34 crianças com CMT através dos instrumentos CHQPF-50 e SDQ e constatou-se que as crianças com CMT apresentaram uma qualidade de vida significativamente inferior a seus pares saudáveis não apenas nos aspectos físicos, mas também em aspectos emocionais. Em relação aos indicadores comportamentais, verificou-se uma taxa elevada de problemas tanto internalizantes quanto externalizantes das crianças com CMT. Características da própria doença, tais como realização de tratamento e gravidade da neuropatia, foram fatores que influenciaram diretamente tanto na qualidade de vida quanto nos problemas de comportamento das crianças. As variáveis antecedentes familiares e tipo de CMT não impactaram a qualidade nem acarretaram dificuldades de comportamento nas crianças deste estudo. Os resultados evidenciam a necessidade de se pensar em estratégias de saúde mental, que favoreçam a identificação de condições emocionais associadas ao quadro de saúde física destas criança.
