Children's DLQI

The Children's Dermatology Life Quality Index (cDLQI) is a pediatric-adapted version of the adult DLQI, measuring the impact of skin disease on quality of life in children and adolescents aged 4–16 years. Developed by Lewis-Jones and Finlay in 1995, it uses child-friendly language and addresses domains relevant to childhood (school, leisure, friendships, clothing) rather than work and adult relationships. cDLQI is the standard quality-of-life measure in pediatric dermatology trials and clinical practice.
