Abstract
This study was aimed to determine factors that associated with quality of life of acute lymphoblastic leukemia’s children who undergoing chemotherapy in Dr. M. Djamil Hospital, Padang. The quantitative study with cross sectional approach has been done to 25 children by consecutive sampling. Data collection was using PedsQLTM (Pediatrics Quality of Life) 4.0 Generic Core Scale and nurse’s role (Cronbach α = 0,90). The results revealed that there was a relationship between chemotherapy phase and nurse’s role with generic quality of life (p<0,05). Nurse’s role was a predominant factor of generic quality of life. Thus, it is necessary to increase role of nurse by giving education about treatment and management of chemotherapy side effects.
