About this study

Official title: Cross Cultural Adaptation and Validation of Chilean Version of Orthognathic Quality of Life Questionnaire (OQLQ)

The aim of this study was to develop a Spanish version of the Orthognathic Quality of Life Questionnaire (OQLQ) that is conceptually equivalent to the original questionnaire, as well as acceptable, reliable, valid, and responsive for use in Chilean patients with dentofacial deformities.The cross cultural adaptation process was carried out according to the recommended standard methodology with direct and back-translation.

Read the detailed description

A prospective longitudinal multicenter study of adult patients diagnosed with dentofacial deformity was carried out, self-administrating OQLQ, OHIP-14 (Oral Health Impact Profile), and SF-36 (Short Form 36 Health Survey) during the presurgery visit in order to examine construct validity. To evaluate reproducibility, questionnaires were re-administered 4 weeks later to subjects with a stable dental condition. Responsiveness was assessed among subjects followed up until 3 months after surgery and finally changes in health-related quality of life was assessed comparing baseline pre-surgery to 3 and 6 months post-surgery.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Metric properties of Orthognathic Quality of Life Questionnaire (OQLQ): Reliability

    To measure this metric property, internal consistency and test-retest reproducibility were assessed. The orthognathic quality of life questionnaire (OQLQ) was applied twice, with four weeks between tests.

    To assess reliability, the internal consistency was estimated by the Cronbach alpha coefficient, and the test-retest reproducibility was estimated by the intraclass correlation coefficient.

    The orthognathic quality of life questionnaire is a condition specific instrument for assessment oral health quality of life in dentofacial deformities patients 22 ítems values: min = 0 / max = 88 higher scores mean a worse outcome

    Measured: 4 weeks follow-up

  2. Metric properties of Orthognathic Quality of Life Questionnaire (OQLQ): Validity

    Validity refers to the degree to which the instrument measures what it purports to measure.

    Construct validity was evaluated analyzing the hypothesized relationships between scores by calculating the Spearman correlation coefficients.

    Measured: baseline

  3. Metric properties of Orthognathic Quality of Life Questionnaire (OQLQ): Responsiveness to change

    Responsiveness refers to an instrument's ability to detect change. To evaluate responsiveness of the orthognathic quality of life questionnaire (OQLQ) we applied twice: first one week before surgery (T1), and then three months after surgery (T2) To evaluate responsiveness, a paired t-test was used to assess the score changes in patients undergoing orthognathic surgery. The magnitude of the change was evaluated calculating the standardized response mean.

    Measured: baseline - 3 months follow-up

  4. changes in oral health related quality of life after orthognathic surgery assessed with Orthognathic Quality of Life Questionnaire (OQLQ)

    Orthognathic quality of life questionnaire (OQLQ) was applied at 3 times: baseline, one week before surgery (T1), three months after surgery (T2) and 6 months after surgery (T3).

    A paired t-test was used to assess the mean (SD) changes in patients undergoing orthognathic surgery. The magnitude of the change was evaluated calculating the standardized response mean (SRM).

    Measured: baseline to 3 and 6 months follow-up

  5. changes in oral health related quality of life after orthognathic surgery assessed with Short form Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14)

    Short form Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14) was applied at 3 times: baseline, one week before surgery (T1), three months after surgery (T2) and 6 months after surgery (T3).

    A paired t-test was used to assess the mean (SD) changes in patients undergoing orthognathic surgery. The magnitude of the change was evaluated calculating the standardized response mean (SRM).

    The Short Form Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14) is an instrument for assessment oral health-related quality of life.

    14 ítems values: min = 0 / max = 56 higher scores mean a worse outcome

    Measured: baseline to 3 and 6 months follow-up

  6. changes in health related quality of life after orthognathic surgery assessed with Short Form Health Survey (SF-36)

    The Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) was applied at 3 times: baseline, one week before surgery (T1), three months after surgery (T2) and 6 months after surgery (T3).

    A paired t-test was used to assess the mean (SD) changes in patients undergoing orthognathic surgery. The magnitude of the change was evaluated calculating the standardized response mean (SRM).

    The Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) is a generic health-related quality of life questionnaire 36 ítems in addition, each item is scored on a 0 to 100 range so that the lowest and highest possible scores are 0 and 100, respectively. Scores represent the percentage of total possible score achieved.

    higher scores mean a better outcome

    Measured: baseline to 3 and 6 months follow-up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Health-related Quality of Life and Dentofacial Deformities, run by Hospital Carlos Van Buren at 1 site in Chile.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Apr 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Chile. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Metric properties of Orthognathic Quality of Life Questionnaire (OQLQ): Reliability (time frame: 4 weeks follow-up). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Apr 2021.
