Abstract

This study sought to determine the status of family quality of life in children and teenagers with disability associated to birth defects, who attended the clinical genetics outpatient consultation at a reference center in southwestern Colombia. The Family Quality of Life models proposed by the University of Kansas, and The Family Quality of Life Scale (FQOL) adapted for Colombia, were used to evaluate indicators and scale factors. Each factor was rated in terms of importance and satisfaction according to the caretaker. The Map Family Quality of Life (MFQOL) was configured and shows two areas (needs and strength). The information was saved and processed with the Excel software. The MFQOL showed that most of the indicators were located the strong area of the map, with the exception of some related with family resources and support of persons with disabilities (PWD), which were located in the needs area. Through design strategies it was generated a graphic form to summarize the results and present them clearly to families.
