Stated Preferences of Patients with Cancer for Health-related Quality-of-life (HRQOL) Domains During Treatment
Are Chemotherapy Patients’ HRQoL Importance Weights Consistent with Linear Scoring Rules? A Stated-choice Approach
The relationship of changes in EORTC QLQ-C30 scores to ratings on the Subjective Significance Questionnaire in men with localized prostate cancer
Methods to Explain the Clinical Significance of Health Status Measures
A Taxonomy of the Uses of Health-Related Quality-of-Life Instruments in Cancer Care and the Clinical Meaningfulness of the Results
OBJECTIVES: To propose a taxonomy of psychometrically based, health-related quality-of-life instruments related to three levels of decision-making of health care: the macro, meso and micro levels. The choice of appropriate health-related quality-of-life instruments for each level of desired decision making in various clinical settings is illustrated. A secondary objective was to describe solutions for some of the difficulties inherent in the inte…
Interpreting the significance of changes in health-related quality-of-life scores.
PURPOSE: To determine the significance to patients of changes in health-related quality-of-life (HLQ) scores assessed by the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire (QLQ-C30). PATIENTS AND METHODS: A subjective significance questionnaire (SSQ), which asks patients about perceived changes in physical, emotional, and social functioning and in global quality of life (global QL) and the QLQ-C30…
Patients' experiences using a computerized program with a touch-sensitive video monitor for the assessment of health-related quality of life
Modification of the EORTC QLQ-C30 (version 2.0) based on content validity and reliability testing in large samples of patients with cancer
The Use of Significant Others as Proxy Raters of the Quality of Life of Patients with Brain Cancer
OBJECTIVES: The use of self-report questionnaires for the assessment of health-related quality of life (HRQOL) is increasingly common in clinical research. This method of data collection may be less suitable for patient groups who suffer from cognitive impairment, however, such as patients with brain cancer. In such cases, one can consider employing the patients' significant others as proxy raters of the patients' health-related quality of life. …
The development and psychometric validation of a brain cancer quality-of-life questionnaire for use in combination with general cancer-specific questionnaires
The Karnofsky performance status scale re-examined
Research on health-related quality of life
Psychometric properties and responsiveness of the EORTC Quality of Life Questionnaire (QLQ-C30) in patients with breast, ovarian and lung cancer
The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer QLQ-C30
BACKGROUND: In 1986, the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) initiated a research program to develop an integrated, modular approach for evaluating the quality of life of patients participating in international clinical trials. PURPOSE: We report here the results of an international field study of the practicality, reliability, and validity of the EORTC QLQ-C30, the current core questionnaire. The QLQ-C30 incorporat…
