Abstract

INTRODUCTION

The prevention and relief of suffering are regarded as a goal at the end of life; therefore, suffering assessment at the end of life is essential. In this regard, we need instruments that allow us to evaluate this construct for gathering more evidence, as the assessment of suffering is increasingly used in research and the clinical setting. Many measures have been designed to assess this construct, and the selection of the most appropriate instrument is crucial. The aims of this systematic review are to (1) identify the measures assessing suffering in patients with advanced disease and their psychometric properties and (2) evaluate the methodological quality of studies on measurement properties.

METHODS AND ANALYSIS

The protocol of this systematic review was developed using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Protocols Guidelines. A systematic psychometric review of measures assessing suffering in patients with advanced disease and their psychometric properties will be carried out according to the COnsensus-based Standards for the selection of health status Measurement INstruments (COSMIN). The search strategy will be performed following the Peer Review of Electronic Search Strategies. Searches will be conducted in Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, Medline, PsycINFO, Cochrane Library, SciELO, Open Grey, Scopus, Web of Science and COSMIN database of systematic reviews, and it will be limited by time (1980-2018) and language (only literature in English and Spanish). Literature will be evaluated by two independent reviewers according to the COSMIN checklist, and measurement properties data of each study that meet the inclusion criteria will be scored independently by two researchers according to COSMIN quality ratings.

ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION

Ethical approval is not necessary for systematic review protocols. The results will be disseminated by publication in a peer-reviewed journal and presented at a relevant conference.

摘要

简介

预防和缓解痛苦被视为生命末期的目标；因此，生命末期的痛苦评估至关重要。在这方面，我们需要能够评估这一结构的工具，以收集更多的证据，因为对痛苦的评估越来越多地用于研究和临床环境。已经设计了许多措施来评估这一结构，选择最合适的工具是至关重要的。本系统评价的目的是：(1)确定评估晚期疾病患者痛苦的测量方法及其心理测量特性；(2)评估测量特性研究的方法学质量。

方法和分析

本系统评价的方案是根据系统评价和荟萃分析的首选报告项目制定的。将根据共识基础的健康状况测量工具选择标准(COSMIN)对评估晚期疾病患者痛苦的测量方法及其心理测量特性进行系统的心理测量评价。搜索策略将按照同行评审电子搜索策略进行。搜索将在 Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature、Medline、PsycINFO、Cochrane Library、SciELO、Open Grey、Scopus、Web of Science 和 COSMIN 系统评价数据库中进行，并将根据时间(1980-2018)和语言(仅为英文和西班牙文文献)进行限制。文献将由两名独立的审查员根据 COSMIN 清单进行评估，符合纳入标准的每项研究的测量特性数据将由两名研究人员根据 COSMIN 质量评分独立评分。
