Abstract

Growth hormone deficiency (GHD) in children causes decreased growth and markedly reduced adult height. The treatment for GHD has been given as daily subcutaneous injections. However, new GH formulations can be given weekly. Injections are a burden for children and caregivers, but to our knowledge, the impact on quality of life (QoL) has not been investigated using time trade-off (TTO) methodology. This study evaluates the impact of type of injections on QoL using a TTO survey.
