抽象的
目的
Breathlessness is a common and distressing symptom in patients with advanced disease. Patients’ self-report is deemed to be the most valid method of symptom assessment. When patients are not capable of self-assessment, professionals’ assessment is often used as alternative but evidence on the validity is conflicting. The aim of this study was to compare self- and professionals’ assessment of breathlessness regarding presence and severity in patients with advanced disease.
Methods
Secondary analysis of a cross-sectional, multi-centre and nationwide register (HOspice and Palliative Care Evaluation (HOPE)). Documented inpatients from hospices and palliative care units from 2006 to 2008 who completed the self-assessed MInimal DOcumentation System (MIDOS) were included. Professionals’ assessment were based on the integrated symptom and problem checklist (symptom scores, 0–3). Cohen’s kappa (κ)用于估计“协议水平”(LOA)。
结果
分析了两千六百二十三名患者(平均年龄为66.9(SD,12.8);女性中位数为54.4%;东部合作肿瘤学组中位数为3; 95.9%患有恶性疾病)。呼吸困难的患病率为53.4%(1,398例),专业人士的患者为53.1%(1,410名患者)。在80.9%的病例中,专业人员正确评估了存在(敏感性为81.8%;特异性为79.8%)。在65.7%的病例中正确估计了呼吸困难的严重程度。Loa很好(κ = 0.62) for the evaluation of presence of breathlessness and moderate (κ = 0.5) for the estimation of severity. The proportion of over- or underestimated scores was similar.
Conclusions
如果不可能使用患者的自我评价,症状评估的黄金标准标准,那么至少对于评估呼吸困难的存在,专业人士的评估可能是有效的选择。
