BACKGROUND
Breast-cancer related lymphedema (BCRL) is a common condition among breast cancer survivors that could impact the quality of life (QoL) of patients. Exploring the QoL of the patients with BCRL using valid and reliable QoL is crucial to capture the status of this important aspect hence appropriate intervention could be implement to patient. However, so far no scientific review is available, which reports the psychometric properties of the QoL questionnaires used in BCRL. The purpose of this systematic review is to comprehensively assess the psychometric properties of QoL questionnaires in patients with BCRL.
METHODS
We will perform comprehensive searches of published studies in electronic databases such as Medline (via Ovid), EBSCOhost, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science by using the following search terms: "quality of life"; "breast cancer"; "upper limb"; "lymphedema"; "questionnaire"; and "measurement properties." Only full-text articles in English language are included. Two reviewers will independently conduct the article selection, data extraction, and quality assessment. Any possible conflict between the 2 reviewers is going to be solved with the help of a third reviewer. The Consensus-based Standards for the Selection of Health Measurement Instrument (COSMIN) checklist and manual will be used to assess the selected study quality.
RESULTS
This review will provide an updated overview of available lymphedema-specific questionnaires used in BCRL population and then recommend the most valid and reliable QoL questionnaire for clinical and research use in patients with BCRL.
CONCLUSION
This review may help the clinician and researcher to find an updated overview of various questionnaires used to assess BCRL patients' QoL.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION
This review will use data from published studies. Therefore, ethical approval is not required prior to this review. The results of this review will be published in a peer-reviewed journal or presented at conferences.

背景
乳腺癌相关淋巴水肿（BCRL）是乳腺癌幸存者的常见病症，可能会影响患者的生活质量（QoL）。使用有效的和可靠的 QoL 来探索 BCRL 患者的 QoL 至关重要，因为这样可以捕捉到这一重要方面的状况，从而对患者实施适当的干预。然而，到目前为止，尚无科学综述报告用于 BCRL 的 QoL 问卷的心理测量学特性。本系统综述的目的是全面评估 BCRL 患者 QoL 问卷的心理测量学特性。
方法
我们将在电子数据库中进行广泛的文献检索，如 Medline（通过 Ovid）、EBSCOhost、PubMed、Scopus 和 Web of Science，使用以下搜索词：“生活质量”；“乳腺癌”；“上肢”；“淋巴水肿”；“问卷”；和“测量特性”。仅纳入全文为英文的文章。两名评审员将独立进行文章选择、数据提取和质量评估。如果两名评审员之间存在任何可能的冲突，将由第三名评审员协助解决。将使用基于共识的健康测量仪器选择标准（COSMIN）清单和手册来评估所选研究的质量。
结果
本综述将提供 BCRL 人群中使用的特定于淋巴水肿的问卷的最新概述，然后推荐最有效的和可靠的 QoL 问卷，以供 BCRL 患者的临床和研究使用。
结论
本综述可能有助于临床医生和研究人员找到用于评估 BCRL 患者 QoL 的各种问卷的最新概述。
伦理与传播
本综述将使用已发表研究的数据。因此，在进行本综述之前不需要伦理批准。本综述的结果将发表在同行评议的期刊上或在会议上发表。
