Quality of life assessed using The World Health Organization Quality of Life (WHOQOL) scale. Social support assessed using Zimet's Multidimensional Perceived Social Support Scale - the original version on the MSPSS.
时间窗: 12 months to 24 months
Quality of life assessed using The World Health Organization Quality of Life (WHOQOL-BREF) scale questionnaire which contains 26 questions analyzing four domains of life and separately perception of quality of life and self-assessment of health status. It is used to assess the quality of life of both healthy and sick people in clinical practice and addresses the following domains of quality of life: somatic functioning, psychological functioning, social functioning and community functioning. Social support assessed using Zimet's Multidimensional Perceived Social Support Scale - the original version on the MSPSS. The Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support takes into account the multidimensionality of perceived social support, considering three primary sources of support: significant other, family and friends. The scale consists of 12 statements, which the subject addresses using a seven-point Likert scale, where 1 means "strongly disagree" and 7 means "strongly agree."
