  • FACT-PSI

    FACT-PSI Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - Pulmonary Symptom Index For patients with Lung cancer; a Pulmonary Symptom Index LICENSE THIS MEASURE Overview Language Availability Licensing Selected References Related Measures Overview Overview The FACT-PSI is a 4 item subset of the FACT-LCS which measures pulmonary symptoms in patients with lung cancer. The Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Lung (FACT-L) Scale is a 36-item self-report instrument that measures multidimensional quality of life. It was developed from 1987-1993 and first published in 1995. The FACT-L meets a growing need for disease-specific health-related quality of life (HRQOL) questionnaires that address the general and unique concerns of patients diagnosed with lung cancer. Subsequent to its development, its results have been published in over 25 papers from over 15 unique data sets including over 4,000 people with lung cancer. Since 1995, studied groups have included cancer patients receiving chemotherapy, cancer patients receiving radiotherapy, terminally-ill patients and disease-free survivors. It is a widely-used, reliable and valid measure of multidimensional health status among people with lung cancer. It is brief, has clearly-written, easy-to-read questions, flexible modes of administration shown to be equivalent, and is translated in several dozen languages.
