[Health-related quality of life measurement: a critical reading guide].

Abstract:

INTRODUCTION:Quality of life is rarely assessed in the pulmonary function laboratory. Quality of life, or at least some of its domains, should be directly measured. STATE OF ART:Quality-of-life questionnaires developed according to established protocols can be very useful in clinical practice. In clinical studies, the choice of a questionnaire depends on its function (evaluative or discriminative) which should be supported by its measurement properties (validity, reliability, responsiveness). PERSPECTIVES AND CONCLUSIONS:The methodology of critical appraisal of an article about quality of life proposed in this reading guide are in keeping with the principles of evidence-based medicine.
