Keywords:
Recurrent abdominal pain, quality of life, lansoprazole
Abstract
Background Recurrent abdominal pain (RAP) is one of the mostcommon complaints in adolescents. Treatment for RAP depends
on the etiology. Lansoprazole has been shown to be effective on
gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), but further study is
needed to assess the effects of lansoprazole on RAP.
Objective To assess quality of life (QoL) of RAP patients who
received lansoprazole compared to placebo treatment.
Methods This randomized, clinical trial was conducted in the
Secanggang District, Lan gkat Regency, North Sumatera, from
August to October 2009. Patients who met the Apley criteria for
RAP diagnosis were enrolled in the study. Subj ects were divided
into two groups: those who received 30 mg lansoprazole daily and
those who received placebo, for 14 days. Quality oflife was assessed
using the Pediatrics Quality of Life (PedsQL) version 4.0 before
administration oflansoprazole/placebo and reassessed 30 days after
treatment. Efficacy of treatment was assessed by comparing the
QoL before and after treatment in the two groups.
Results A total of 98 adolescents, aged 12 - 18 years, were
enrolled in the study and divided into two groups: lansoprazole
and placebo. There was no significant difference QoL in physical
health (mean differences 95%CI -109.19 to 1.02; P=0.054),
emotional health (mean differences 95%CI -29.26 to 45.48;
P=0.666), social functioning (mean differences 95%CI -42.91
to 31.69; P=0.766), and sch ool functioning (mean differences
95%CI -56.97 to 24.32; P= 0.430), before and after treatment
in the two groups.
Conclusion There is no significant difference in QoL between the
two groups of adolescents with RAP before and after lansoprazole
treatment.
