Cross-cultural adaptation of the Dizziness Handicap Inventory – child/adolescent to Spanish version. Analysis of its application in children.
Abstract
The Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) is a questionnaire to assess self-perception of disability produced by the effects of vestibular system disorders. It is a tool used by professionals who treat patients with balance disorders, although it is not widely used in children. The aim of this study is to carry out a cross-cultural and linguistic adaptation of the DHI children/adolescent in the Argentine population from a version already published in Portuguese and to evaluate it in a group of patients.
