Interventions
QLQ-C30 is the generic QOL tool for patients with cancer undergoing clinical trials.QLQ-STO22, containing 22 questions specific to gastric cancer, is currently the only standardized disease-specific questionnaire to measure the QOL of gastric cancer and must be used in conjunction with the QLQ-C30.MSK-10 consists of ten additional questions that were developed by surgeons on the GMT service to answer specific questions about outcomes related to proximal subtotal, distal subtotal, and total gastrectomies. These questions focus on eating capabilities, work status and major life changing events.
