French version of child sinusitis questionnaire under review
NCT ID NCT04117646
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a French translation of the SN-5 questionnaire, which measures quality of life in children with chronic rhinosinusitis, works as well as the original English version. Researchers asked 89 children (ages 2–12) and their parents to fill out the questionnaire twice, two weeks apart. The goal was to check if the French version is reliable and accurate for use in clinics and research.

- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could provide a reliable tool for French-speaking doctors to measure how chronic sinusitis affects children's daily lives.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, completed validation study, not a treatment trial. The questionnaire may not capture all symptoms or work well in other settings.
