Abstract

PURPOSE OF REVIEW Two commonly used quality of life (QoL) questionnaires in lung cancer patients are the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire Lung Cancer 13 (QLQ-LC13) and the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Lung (FACT-L). More recently, the EORTC QLQ-LC29 was developed. This systematic review compares the EORTC QLQ-LC29, EORTC QLQ-LC13 and FACT-L in terms of the content, validity and psychometric properties in assessing the QoL of lung cancer patients. RECENT FINDINGS Fourteen studies were included. The EORTC QLQ-LC29 is a 29-item scale that serves as an update of the EORTC QLQ-LC13 to include symptoms from surgery and new targeted therapies. It shows validity, high internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and sensitivity. The FACT-L continues to assess general quality of life and lung cancer-specific symptoms. SUMMARY The EORTC QLQ-LC29, EORTC QLQ-LC13, and FACT-L were reviewed to assess their validity in measuring QoL of lung cancer patients. All were found to be sufficiently validated, The choice of which to use should depend on the primary goals of the study.

比较 EORTC QLQ-LC13、EORTC QLQ-LC29 和 FACT-L 对肺癌患者生活质量的评估--最新系统综述。

综述目的肺癌患者常用的两种生活质量（QoL）问卷是欧洲癌症研究和治疗组织（EORTC）的肺癌生活质量问卷 13（QLQ-LC13）和肺癌治疗功能评估（FACT-L）。最近又开发了 EORTC QLQ-LC29。本系统综述比较了 EORTC QLQ-LC29、EORTC QLQ-LC13 和 FACT-L 在评估肺癌患者 QoL 方面的内容、有效性和心理测量特性。EORTC QLQ-LC29由29个项目组成，是EORTC QLQ-LC13的更新版，纳入了手术和新靶向疗法引起的症状。该量表具有有效性、高内部一致性、重测可靠性和敏感性。总结我们对 EORTC QLQ-LC29、EORTC QLQ-LC13 和 FACT-L 进行了回顾性研究，以评估它们在测量肺癌患者生活质量方面的有效性。结果表明，所有这些方法都经过充分验证，选择使用哪种方法取决于研究的主要目标。
