Abstract:

Article discusses the psychometric properties and clinical utility of the Burn Outcome Questionnaires (BOQs). The BOQs are currently the most well-studied and clinically developed patient-reported outcome measures for use in children with burn injuries. There are currently four separate BOQ instruments: (1) the BOQ0–5, administered to the parents of the burn survivors, ages 0 up to 5 years of age; (2) the BOQ5–18, also administered to the parents of the burn survivors ages 5–18 years; (3) the BOQ11–18, administered to teen burn survivors, ages 11–18; and (4) the Young Adult Burn Outcome Questionnaire, administered to burn survivors ages 19–30.
