Abstract

We developed an instrument to assess feelings about self-injection of growth hormone (GH) in adolescents with growth disorders. Summary scores did not differ significantly by cohort, age, gender, or diagnosis. Adolescents who were more comfortable with GH injections had higher health-related quality of life, functional capacity, and self-control.
