Brief summary

The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of adapted physical activity intervention on health-related quality of life and satisfaction with care in hospitalized children and adolescents. This is a randomized controlled study. The hypothesis is that children practicing adapted physical activity during their hospitalization present a higher health-related quality of life and satisfaction with care than those who do not.
