An observational study in Health-related Quality of Life and Dentofacial Deformities, sponsored by Hospital Carlos Van Buren. Completed at 1 site in Chile. Open to participants aged 18 Years and older, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2021-04-28.
Sponsored by Hospital Carlos Van Buren · Observational
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.
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.
39 studies on the registry are indexed under Dentofacial Deformities; 15 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 230 is above the median of 48 across 14 observational studies indexed under Dentofacial Deformities.

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
Time frame: 4 weeks follow-up
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. 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
Time frame: baseline
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. 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
Time frame: baseline - 3 months follow-up
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). 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
Time frame: baseline to 3 and 6 months follow-up
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
Time frame: baseline to 3 and 6 months follow-up
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
Time frame: baseline to 3 and 6 months follow-up
