The Bt-DUX: Development of a subjective measure of health-related quality of life in patients who underwent surgery for lower extremity malignant bone tumor
Pediatric Blood & Cancer, 05/26/09
Bekkering WP et al. - The mean Bt-DUX score was 69.8, with Cronbach's alpha being 0.92. Domain-total correlations ranged between 0.84 and 0.88. Correlations between Bt-DUX Total score and TESS, SF-36 Physical and Mental Component Summary scales and selected TACQOL and TAAQOL scores were statistically significant, except for the social scale of the TACQOL. The Bt-DUX was able to discriminate between patients with higher and lower TESS scores. The Bt-DUX was found to be a practical and valid instrument. Its added value compared with existing HRQoL measures needs to be further established.
