HRQoL 'Physical Functioning (PF)' From Baseline to =6 Months |
Change in quality of life survey response as measured using the SF-36 questionnaire. Scores range from 0 to 100 with higher scores representing better health. There is no total overall score; scoring is done for both subscores and summary scores. The raw data from the SF-36 items were transformed to norm based scores for each of the 8 HRQoL/SF-36 health domain scores. The data transformation process was based on: Ware et al.
