Objective: To evaluate the quality of life of asthmatic children and adolescents, its relation with sociodemographic and clinical variables, and maternal coping strategies. Methods: Cross-sectional study in which children and adolescents with asthma answered a quality of life questionnaire, and their mothers did the same with a coping scale. Results: Out of the 42 children and adolescents investigated, 74% were classified as having mild/severe persistent asthma; 19%, mild persistent asthma; and 7%, intermittent asthma. A total of 69% of the participants showed impaired quality of life with mean scores ranging between 4.7 and 3.5, with greater harm in the domain of symptoms (score=3.6). There was a significant association between maternal schooling and the general index of quality of life, whereas maternal coping strategies were not associated with the severity of asthma. A large number of strategies used by mothers to cope with their children's crises were related to the management of stressors or to religious practices, and the latter presented negative correlation with the children's quality of life general index, showing that mothers whose children had worse quality of life used more religious coping. Conclusions: Asthmatic children, particularly those with moderate/severe persistent asthma, showed significant alterations as to quality of life. The high percentage of mothers using religious strategies, particularly in face of more severe clinical conditions, seem to indicate that they feel powerless to act, thus requiring concrete and useful orientation to low income families.

The objective of this cross-sectional, descriptive and exploratory study was to describe the perceptions of pregnant women with heart disease concerning their quality of life. Ferrans and Powers Quality of Life Index was applied to 42 patients from the second trimester of pregnancy on, between January 2008 and March 2009. Descriptive statistics, analysis of variance and Student's t test were used. The Quality of Life Index median total score was relatively high (23.9), while the socioeconomic domain was the most compromised (22.9). An association between unplanned pregnancies and the socioeconomic domain was observed (p=0.065). These patients' quality of life can be regarded as good, but unplanned pregnancies contributed to worsening scores in the socioeconomic domain. High-risk pregnancies did not affect quality of life because a pregnancy is linked to meanings such as happiness, satisfaction and personal fulfillment.
