Description

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to expand the research capacity for comparative effectiveness evaluations of patients with multiple chronic conditions. Researchers administered a generic Quality of Life (QOL) instrument, physical symptom assessment, patient health questionnaire, and a tobacco screen through audio computer-assisted self-interviews (ACASI) and linked the responses to their electronic medical records (EMR) data. Researchers also calculated two co-morbidity indices (Chronic Disease Score and Charlson Co-morbidity Index).
Methods

Presence of Common Scales: PROMIS-Quality of Life (PROMIS-QOL); Memorial Symptom Assessment Scale (MSAS); Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-2).
