About this trial

The aim of this study is to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Baylor Continence Scale in Turkish-speaking children diagnosed with anorectal malformations. The scale is used to assess continence levels, helping healthcare providers make informed decisions regarding treatment and follow-up. The study includes a sample of children with confirmed anorectal malformations, and data collection consists of language adaptation, statistical validation, and reliability testing. Results will contribute to the standardization of continence assessment in Turkish clinical settings, ensuring accurate evaluations for pediatric patients.
