The aim of this study is to evaluate the life quality of diabetic children and adolescents who are diagnosed with type 1 diabetes mellitus and compare the perceptions of life quality through the life quality scale before and after summer camp.Materials and Method: A scale of life quality was applied to 31 children/adolescents with type 1 Diabetes Mellitus between ages 9-16 years in the Diabetes Summer Camp.Results: The perceived quality of life of children / adolescents with type 1 diabetes were better after diabetes camp (p 0.05). When the Quality of Life Scale scores compared by gender, it was found that the emotional well being and self esteem subscale scores and the total scores of boys were statistically significantly higher after diabetes camp. But the Quality of Life Scale scores of girls did not show a significant increase.Conclusion: This study showed that the diabetes camp, which promoted the ability of diabetic children and adolescents to manage their illnesses, changed the perception of quality of life of male diabetic patients in particular. However, repeating similar studies involving a larger number of cases will allow better evaluation of the results of such activities.en10.5455/jtomc.2017.04.061info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAcil TıpAdli TıpAlerjiAnatomi ve MorfolojiAndrolojiAnesteziBiyofizikBiyokimya ve Moleküler BiyolojiBiyolojiBiyoteknoloji ve Uygulamalı MikrobiyolojiCerrahiDermatolojiEndokrinoloji ve MetabolizmaEnfeksiyon HastalıklarıFizyolojiGastroenteroloji ve HepatolojiGenel ve Dahili TıpGeriatri ve GerontolojiGöz HastalıklarıHalk ve Çevre SağlığıHematolojiHücre BiyolojisiİmmünolojiKadın Hastalıkları ve DoğumKalp ve Kalp Damar SistemiKlinik NörolojiKulakBurunBoğazMikrobiyolojiNörolojik BilimlerOdyoloji ve Konuşma-Dil PatolojisiOnkolojiOrtopediPatolojiPediatriPeriferik Damar HastalıklarıPsikiyatriRadyolojiNükleer TıpTıbbi GörüntülemeRehabilitasyonRomatolojiSağlık Bilimleri ve HizmetleriSolunum SistemiSpor BilimleriTamamlayıcı ve Entegre TıpTemel Sağlık HizmetleriTıbbi Araştırmalar DeneyselTıbbi EtikTıbbi İnformatikTıbbi Laboratuar TeknolojisiTransplantasyonTropik TıpÜroloji ve NefrolojiYoğun BakımTıpAssesment of the effect of summer camp on the life quality of diabetic childrenArticle243305309
