AB Health-related quality of life of children with complex chronic conditions could be affectedby sociodemographic factors. Most studies focus exclusively on the parents’ perceptions of qualityof life. This study aimed to determine the health-related quality of life of these children, accordingto their parents and the children themselves. A cross-sectional study was developed on childrenaged over five years with complex chronic conditions. Health-related quality of life, educationalattainment, and social status were evaluated. A total of 101 children were included with a mean ageof 10.48 years, and 35.6% were female. The most frequent disease was oncological (28.7%). Childrenperceived a better health-related quality of life, compared to their parents’ assessment: mediandifference -8.4 (95%CI: -9.2 to -3.8). Moreover, differences were observed by socioeconomic factors.Parents and children with complex chronic conditions perceive differently the health-related qualityof life. Social determinants associate with an uneven perceived quality of life.
