Summary
Upper respiratory tract infection is one of the most common diseases in primary care centers and in the Ear Throat Ears (ENT), infection in adenoids and tonsils are one of the most common diseases. Adenoid and tonsils infections remain recurrent and chronic infection in both lymphoid tissue can cause oxygenation obstruction in respiratory tract, especially during sleep that will affect the quality of life in children. Children with chronic adenotonsilitis tend to have lower quality of life that affects health status, daily physical activity, playing. The quality of life assessment is influenced by the physical, mental, social and emotional state This assessment can be done using quality of life instrument, such as the pediatrics quality of life (PedsQL).[9] The importance of assessing the quality of life in pediatric patients with chronic adenotonsilitis is to determine the improvement of quality of life gained between before and after ATE procedure. Research about improvement in children quality of life before and after the ATE has been done in overseas, but in Indonesia, especially in Bali province has not been done so that researchers are interested to know the improvement of quality of life before and after doing ATE procedure
