The purpose of this study was to determine how a new self-report outcome measure of communicative participation, the Communicative Participation Item Bank (CPIB), related to disease- and discipline-specific quality of life (QOL) outcomes in a head and neck cancer (HNC) population.
One hundred ninety-five individuals treated for HNC completed the CPIB, the University of Washington Quality of Life questionnaire (UW-QOL), and the Voice Handicap Index-10 (VHI-10).
Results revealed moderate QOL scores across the UW-QOL (mean scores: global QOL = 66; physical subscale = 70; social-emotional subscale = 73) and VHI-10 (mean = 16). Correlations between the CPIB and the UW-QOL scores were statistically significant (P < .001) but relatively weak (r = .37-.38). As hypothesized, a stronger correlation was found between the CPIB and the VHI-10 (r = -0.79; P < .001).
Clinicians may consider adopting the CPIB to complement existing tools in assessing communication outcomes after HNC.
本研究旨在确定一种新的沟通参与自我报告结果测量工具——沟通参与项目库(CPIB),与头颈癌(HNC)患者特定疾病和学科的生活质量(QOL)结果之间的关系。
195名接受HNC治疗的个体完成了CPIB、华盛顿大学生活质量问卷(UW-QOL)和嗓音障碍指数-10(VHI-10)。
结果显示,UW-QOL的生活质量得分中等(平均得分:总体生活质量 = 66;身体亚量表 = 70;社会情感亚量表 = 73),VHI-10的平均得分为16。CPIB与UW-QOL得分之间的相关性具有统计学意义(P < .001),但相对较弱(r = .37-.38)。正如假设的那样,CPIB与VHI-10之间发现了更强的相关性(r = -0.79;P < .001)。
临床医生在评估HNC后的沟通结果时,可考虑采用CPIB来补充现有工具。
