2.1 Study Population
Teens between 13-18 years old who have been followed up at our center
with a diagnosis of EoE since 2009 and their parents were included in
the study. Diagnosis of EoE was made according to the
guideline.1 All the forms used in the study were
filled in by face to face interview with the patients and their parents
at our center. The patients were seen twice one week apart. At the first
visit, demographics were filled in and Turkish version of PEESS
(Tr-PEESS) v2.0 and Tr-PedsQLTM 3.0 EoE Module forms
were applied to patients and to their parents. In the second visit only
Tr-PedsQLTM 3.0 EoE Module was applied for test-retest
reliability.
