Yang YL, Chang YC, Cheng WF, Chen YL, Lai YH. Factors Predicting the Health Status of Women with Ovarian Cancer During Five Treatment Phases. Semin Oncol Nurs 2023; 39:151464. [PMID: 37400343 DOI: 10.1016/j.soncn.2023.151464] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2023] [Revised: 04/07/2023] [Accepted: 05/24/2023] [Indexed: 07/05/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The combined impact of disease status and treatment phase on the quality of life (QoL) of women with ovarian cancer has not been fully considered. Therefore, this clinical, epidemiologic study compared the QoL of patients with ovarian cancer between five different treatment phases and identified the factors predicting their QoL through multivariate modeling. DATA SOURCES This study had a cross-sectional survey design. The participants total of 183 were recruited from the inpatient and outpatient departments of the medical center in northern Taiwan. QoL was measured using the Quality of Life Scales QLQ-C30 and QLQ-OV28 and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. The patient's clinical characteristics data were obtained from the databank of the Taiwan Gynecologic Cancer Network, a registry of active patients being treated with gynecologic cancer. CONCLUSION Chemotherapeutic agents were the major predictors of poor global health status in patients with ovarian cancer. However, good sleep was beneficial to patients' QoL. The study results can be used as a reference to adjust oncological treatment regimens for more effective symptom management and to promote patient education to improve patients' QoL. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE The predicting factors can be considered by physicians and nurses to adjust treatment regimens and enhance patient education.

Abstract
Purpose: To provide perspective on patient-reported outcome measurement (PROM) instruments to adopt in patients diagnosed with gynecological cancers. Methods: A systematic search was conducted to identify PROMs developed for or applied in gynecological cancer populations. PROMs identified in more than one study subsequently underwent assessment according to the COnsensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement INstruments (COSMIN) criteria. Results: Overall, 55 PROMs were identified within the gynecological cancer setting, and 20 were assessed according to COSMIN guidelines. Most PROMs had limited information reported, but a best fit approach was adopted to recommend a number of instruments for use in patients with gynecological cancer. Conclusion: Further study to assess the methodological quality of each PROM utilized in gynecological cancers is warranted to endorse the recommendations of this review.

J Cancer Policy 2023; 35:100371. [PMID: 36436770 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcpo.2022.100371] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2022] [Revised: 11/15/2022] [Accepted: 11/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The number of patients with advanced cancer in China is rapidly increasing. As services and policy evolve, it is essential to improve the quality of care by measuring outcomes of importance to patients and families by identifying patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) for use with advanced cancer patients in China, and critically appraising their cross-cultural adaptation process and measurement properties. METHODS A systematic review was conducted in accordance with COnsensus-based Standards for the selection of health status Measurement INstruments (COSMIN), with quality assessment using the Guidelines for the Process of Cross-Cultural Adaptation of Self-Report Measures and COSMIN quality criteria for measurement properties. MEDLINE, EMBASE, PsycINFO, CINAHL, CNKI and WanFang were systematically searched from inception to May 2019, updated to August 2022. Supplemental searches were conducted in grey literature databases, Google scholar and hand-searching of reference lists. RESULTS From 10793 articles, 437 were selected for full-text review based on titles and abstracts. A total of 46 studies reporting 39 PROMs were retained. No articles were rated as "good quality" in more than four of the six stages of cross-cultural adaptation. At least half of the required information on psychometric properties was missing for each measure. Based on COSMIN, none identified PROMs were valid across all properties nor appropriate to use. CONCLUSION There is currently no contextually appropriate and psychometrically sound PROMs for advanced cancer patients in China. The psychometric literature suggest that adaptation of existing measures is the potential solution. POLICY SUMMARY Developing outcome measures for advanced cancer patients in China is invaluable to improve audit, clinical services and assess the quality of care, for research purposes and secure funding. Future research in measures' development, refinement and cross-cultural adaptation in this field is urgently needed.

J Clin Nurs 2023; 32:539-547. [PMID: 35362192 DOI: 10.1111/jocn.16303] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/03/2022] [Revised: 02/08/2022] [Accepted: 03/08/2022] [Indexed: 01/17/2023]
Abstract
AIM AND OBJECTIVES This study explored the effect of transdermal buprenorphine on quality of life and six symptoms in cancer patients with pain. BACKGROUND Transdermal opioids offer advantages over traditional routes of administration. The impact of transdermal buprenorphine on quality of life for patients with cancer in Asian populations is unknown. DESIGN This study employed a single-arm observational repeated measures design. Cancer patients with pain were evaluated prior to treatment (baseline). Over a 4-week treatment period, quality of life and symptoms were assessed at 2 and 4 weeks. This study adhered to the recommendations of STROBE guidelines. METHODS This multi-site study was conducted in six hospitals located across northern, middle and southern Taiwan. Adult cancer patients whose pain was previously stable with opioid analgesics and, based on clinical judgement, were able to convert to transdermal buprenorphine treatment were invited to participate. Quality of life was measured with the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (QLQ-C30). RESULTS Generalised estimating equations showed participants who completed at least one follow-up measurement (N = 80) over 4-weeks had a significant improvement in overall quality of life. Functional status only improved for social functioning. However, symptom severity decreased significantly for nausea/vomiting, pain, insomnia and constipation. CONCLUSIONS The study provides initial evidence supporting transdermal buprenorphine for providing beneficial effects of improving quality of life and reducing severity of symptoms in Asian patients with cancer. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE The findings of this study can inform the clinical practice that the use of transdermal buprenorphine in cancer patients with pain may also reduce the severity of other symptoms and improve overall quality of life. TRIAL REGISTRATION DETAILS This study was registered in ClinicalTrials.gov. Identifier: NCT04315831.

Translation and validation of the Chinese version of the MD Anderson symptom inventory for measuring perioperative symptom burden in patients with gynecologic cancer. BMC WOMENS HEALTH 2021; 21:276. [PMID: 34325677 PMCID: PMC8320042 DOI: 10.1186/s12905-021-01415-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2021] [Accepted: 07/17/2021] [Indexed: 11/12/2022]
Abstract
Background Gynecologic cancers are among the most prevalent malignancies in China. Cervical and uterine cancer respectively account for the sixth and eighth highest incidence of cancer among Chinese women. Abdominal surgery is one of the important treatment methods for gynecological tumors. However, the tumor- and surgery-related symptom burden are not well studied owing to a lack of a standardized and validated assessment tool in the Chinese population. The study aimed to translate and validate the MD Anderson Symptom Inventory for measuring perioperative symptom burden in gynecologic cancer patients (MDASI-PeriOp-GYN) and examine the utility of the Chinese version of MDASI-PeriOp-GYN. Methods The MDASI-PeriOp-GYN was translated in a stepwise manner. First, two native speakers independently translated the 9 PeriOp-GYN symptom items. Then the nine items were translated back into English by two different bilingual translators. After discussion and revision, the four translators reached an agreement. Finally, the finalized Chinese version was administered to women with three common gynecologic cancer types (cervical, ovarian, and endometrial cancers) recruited from the gynecological oncology department of Sichuan Cancer Hospital & Institute between July and October 2019. The reliability and validity of the translated version were assessed. Results Overall, 324 women with gynecologic cancers were enrolled. Cronbach’s α values were 0.826 and 0.735 for the symptom severity and interference scales, respectively. Test–retest reliability values were 0.885, 0.873, and 0.914 for symptom severity, PeriOp-GYN, and interference scales. Significant correlations were found between the MDASI-PeriOp-GYN-C and EORTC QLQ-C30 along with the QLQ-OV28 module (− 0.608–0.871, P < 0.001). Known-group validity was supported by significant differences in the scores of the four scales grouped by time intervals, surgery type, and functional status (all P < 0.01). Conclusions The MDASI-PeriOp-GYN-C is a valid and reliable tool for measuring symptoms in Chinese patients undergoing surgery for gynecologic cancers. The tool could be used in clinical practice and clinical trials to instantly gather patients’ health and quality of life data. Supplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1186/s12905-021-01415-0.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Health-related quality of life (HRQL) is an important outcome measure in Oncology. AIM OF THE STUDY To validate the Mexican-Spanish version of the QLQ-OV28 questionnaire to assess HRQL in women with ovarian cancer (OC). METHODS The QLQ-C30 and QLQ-OV28 instruments were applied to women with OC attending a cancer center in Mexico. The usual psychometric analyses were performed; the Spearman's method was used for correlation analysis, reliability analysis with the Cronbach's alpha, known-group comparisons with the Kruskal-Wallis test, responsiveness was tested employing repeated measures ANOVA, and the association of scale scores and overall survival (OS) were analyzed with the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox's model. RESULTS Two hundred fifty-two women with OC were included in this cohort. The instruments were well accepted and compliance rates were high; patients responded both instruments in <30 min. The QLQ-OV28 internal consistency tests demonstrated good convergent (Correlation coefficients [CC] 0.154‒0.694) and divergent validity (CC 0.003‒0.69). Cronbach's α coefficients of six of eight scales of the QLQ-OV28 instruments were >0.7 (range, 0.567‒0.857). Scales QLQ-OV28 instruments distinguished among clinically distinct groups of patients, particularly after basal serum albumin and basal Ca‒125 levels. The evaluation of responsiveness demonstrated that two scales of the QLQ-OV28 were sensitive to change over time during induction chemotherapy. Six scales of the QLQ-OV28 were associated with OS. CONCLUSIONS The Mexican-Spanish version of the QLQ-OV28 questionnaire is reliable and valid for the assessment of HRQL in patients with OC and can be broadly used in clinical trials.

Abstract
This systematic review describes psychosocial and quality of life (QOL) measures used in psycho-oncology research with cancer patients and caregivers in China. Medline and PsycINFO databases were searched (1980-2014). Studies reviewed met the following criteria: English language; peer-reviewed; sampled Chinese cancer patients/caregivers; developed, validated or assessed psychometric properties of psychosocial or QOL outcome measures; and reported validation data. The review examined characteristics of measures and participants, translation and cultural adaptation processes and psychometric properties of the measures. Ninety five studies met review criteria. Common characteristics of studies reviewed were they: assessed primarily QOL measures, sampled patients with breast, colorectal, or head and neck cancer, and validated existing measures (>80%) originating in North America or Europe. Few studies reported difficulties translating measures. Regarding psychometric properties of the measures >50% of studies reported subscale reliabilities <α = 0.70, <50% reported test-retest reliability, and <30% reported divergent validity. Few reported sensitivity, specificity or responsiveness. Improved accuracy and transparency of reporting for translation, cultural adaptation and psychometric testing of psychosocial measures is needed. Developing support structures for translating and validating psychosocial measures would enable this and ensure Chinese psycho-oncology clinical practice and research keeps pace with international focus on patient reported outcome measures and data management.
