Identifying and classifying quality-of-life tools for assessing pressure ulcers after spinal cord injury pdf
Although pressure ulcers may negatively influence quality of life (QoL) post-spinal cord injury (SCI), our
understanding of how to assess their impact is confounded by conceptual and measurement issues. To ensure
that descriptions of pressure ulcer impact are appropriately characterized, measures should be selected
according to the domains that they evaluate and the population and pathologies for which they are designed.
Objective: To conduct a systematic literature review to identify and classify outcome measures used to assess
the impact of pressure ulcers on QoL after SCI.
