Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | anxiety, depression, stress: HADS-D | HADS-D is a validated screening tool (questionnaire) to assess anxiety and depression in patients with physical and psychological disorders, especially taking into account a physical primary disease. | 5 minutes | |
Secondary | anthropometric data (weight, height, body mass index) | weight, height and body mass index are measured | 3 minutes | |
Secondary | Psycho-oncologic basis assessment (PO-BADO) | The PO-BADO is a rating scale to assess the subjectively perceived stress in oncologic patients. The assessment is performed by a physician. Sociodemographic and medical data as well as psychologic distress are evaluated. Further relevant sociodemographic and medical data is assessed by a physician. | 25-30 minutes | |
Secondary | Visual analog scale (VAS) | The visual analog scale is a semiquantitative test to assess subjective pain intensity on a scale between 0-10 (0 being no pain at all, 10 being the worst pain imaginable). The patient is asked to report the most intense pain within the last week that is associated with the cancer diagnosis/treatment as well as musculoskeletal pain. | 2 minutes | |
Secondary | functional assessment: hand grip strength | Hand grip strength measures the maximal isometric handgrip strength using a JAMAR®dynamometer (in kilograms). Assessment is performed in a standardized position, sitting on a chair, elbow is flexed 90 degrees, upper extremity is in neutral position. 3 assessments are performed with the dominant hand, the mean value is registered. The motoric skill strength is assessed. | 5 minutes | |
Secondary | functional assessment: 6 Minute Walking Test | The 6 Minute Walking Test (6MWT) is used to estimate the basic motoric function endurance. It helps to evaluate the patients cardiovascular and pulmonal performance below the anerobic threshold. The patient is asked to quickly walk (not run) for 6 minutes, the distance walked within 6 minutes is measured. Walking aids and taking a break if needed is allowed. This test has been validated and recommended for cancer patients. | 8 minutes | |
Secondary | functional assessment: Timed Get up and Go Test | Timed Get up and Go Test (TGU): this standardized test assesses functional mobility. The patient is asked to sit on a chair with armrests. When told, he has to get up without the help of other persons, walk a distance of 3 meters, turn and sit down again. Walking aids such as a cane are allowed to use if necessary. The time is registered that the person needs for that maneuver (< 10 seconds indicate no limitations in mobility). The test has a good validity and reliability. | 5 minutes | |
Secondary | Quality of life: Short- Form -36 | The Short Form -36 is a validated questionnaire to assess the health-related quality of life. There are 8 dimensions of the test that can be summarized into the main domains "physical health" and "mental health". Also, changes compared to the year before are evaluated. | 10 minutes | |
Secondary | subjective perceived stress: Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10) | The PSS-10 scale measures the subjective perception of stress. 2 scales evaluate the domains "helplessness" and "self-efficacy". | 5 minutes | |
Secondary | resilience: resilience scale (RS-13) | Resilience is seen as a criterion of emotional stability and psychological health. It is a personal resource to deal with stressful events in life. This one-dimensional scale evaluates the resilience of a person. | 5 minutes | |
Secondary | fatigue: brief fatigue inventory (BFI) | The BFI score is a validated tool to assess cancer-related fatigue. The questionnaire consists of 10 items that capture 6 dimensions: activity, mood, mobility, work, social relation and vitality. | 5 minutes | |
Secondary | disability related to pain: Pain Disability Index (PDI) | The PDI is used to assess the subjective impairment of a chronic pain situation in everyday life. The questionnaire is based on a multidimensional concept of impairment due to the pain condition. It differentiates between damage, disability and discrimination. It evaluates 7 areas of life (family/home, recreation, social activities, work, sexuality, self-supply, vital activities.) | 5 minutes | |
Secondary | workability: Work Ability Index - short version (WAI-K) | The WAI evaluates the amount to which employed people are able to do their work in light of health, mental resources and work requirements. It helps to estimate the individual performance regarding the current working situation. It consists of 10 items and 7 dimensions. The summary score is a measure for the subjective estimate of the own capacity to meet work requirements. | 5 minutes | |
Secondary | psychological assessment according to the diagnostic I.C.D.-10 based checklists | The psychological assessment is based on the results of the screening tools to identify psychosocial stress/ disorders. It aims to further evaluate the present problems and clarify whether symptoms are subsyndromal or fulfil the criteria of a mental disorder according to the I.C.D.-10 classification. External assessment tools used are the international diagnostic checklist for I.C.D.-10 (IDCL) and the I.C.D.-10 symptom checklist for mental disorders (SCL). | 90 minutes |
