Quality of Life and Functional Status Measures in Patients With Head and Neck Cancer
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To assess the relationship among three validated head and neck-specific measures of functional status and a general measure of quality of life in patients with head and neck cancer. DESIGNS: Cross-sectional study using medical chart review, patient interview, and test administration. SETTING: Academic tertiary referral center. PARTICIPANTS: Fifty adults patients 3 months to 6 years after major surgery for head and neck cancer. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Scores from a general measure of quality of life (the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy), a subscale specific to head and neck cancer, the University of Washington Quality of Life Questionnaire, and the Performance Status Scale for Head and Neck Cancer Patients. RESULTS: The disease-specific measures of functional status correlate well with one another. However, there were low correlations between the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy and the disease-specific measures, indicating that general and disease-specific instruments contribute unique information about quality of life. CONCLUSION: A general measure of quality of life augments information obtained by disease-specific instruments by interpreting functional status in the broader scope of the patient's life.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
