Resumo: | Objective: To verify which instruments are most widely used to assess quality of life in patients with gynecological cancer under clinical protocols, before and after treatment, and during palliative care. Method: The study consisted of a review of PUBMED published papers that reported use of questionnaires or interviews in women with gynecological cancer. Articles were included that referred to studies on women = 45 or more years of age, and that they had been published in the previous five years, in English. An initial literature review yielded 474 eligible articles, of which 30 were selected for inclusion in the present study. Results: A wide variety of instruments were found. Questionnaires were self-completed in hospitals or clinics and returned to he researches immediately or by mail, or applied verbally by the researchers, either face-to-face or by telephone. Choice of questionnaires depended on treatment phase, disease stage, study design and primary study objective. The most frequently used questionnaires were The Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-General Scale (FACT-G), The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality-of-Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ) and The Medical Outcomes Study Short Form-36 (MOS SF-36). Conclusion: Even with the limitations identified in the articles, the authors were generally optimistic about the instruments' ability to validate their therapeutic options. |

Método: Foi realizada uma revisão dos trabalhos que empregassem questionário(s) ou entrevista(s) em mulheres com câncer genital, sendo patologia única ou não na casuística, publicados no MEDLINE. Os artigos deveriam contemplar pacientes adultas a partir de 45 anos de idade, publicados nos últimos cinco anos, em língua inglesa. Inicialmente foram identificados 474 artigos, dos quais 30 foram utilizados para o presente trabalho. Resultados: A variedade de instrumentos e de aplicação foi grande. Alguns instrumentos foram de autopreenchimento no hospital, consultório ou por correio e outros eram aplicados por terceiros no hospital ou consultório ou por telefone. Tal variação dependeu da etapa do tratamento, do estágio inicial ou avançado da neoplasia, do tipo de desenho do estudo e do objetivo principal declarado. Os questionários mais utilizados foram o Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-General Scale (FACT-G), o European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality-of-Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ) e o Medical Outcomes Study Short Form-36 (MOS SF-36). Conclusão: Mesmo com restrições apontadas, os autores se mostraram, na maioria, entusiastas com os instrumentos como meio de validar suas propostas terapêuticas.INCA2006-03-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionRevisão de literaturaapplication/pdfhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/190810.32635/2176-9745.RBC.2006v52n1.1908Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 52 No. 1 (2006): Jan./Feb./Mar.; 33-47Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 52 Núm. 1 (2006): ene./feb./mar.; 33-47Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; v. 52 n. 1 (2006): jan./fev./mar.; 33-472176-9745reponame:Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online)instname:Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)instacron:INCAporhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/1908/1159Silva, Carlos Henrique DebeneditoDerchain, Sophie Françoise Mauricetteinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2021-11-29T20:28:40Zoai:rbc.inca.gov.br:article/1908Revistahttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revistaPUBhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/oairbc@inca.gov.br0034-71162176-9745opendoar:2021-11-29T20:28:40Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online) - Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)false |
