Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The outbreak of coronavirus was categorized as a global pandemic in March 2020. The Danish government recommends social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic. Long-term social distancing and fear of disease can lead to anxiety, depression and the feeling of loneliness. All these factors might affect the quality of life (QoL). The aim of this study is to investigate the overall QoL for patients with cancer during the COVID-19 pandemic with special focus on emotional functioning.

- description
- EORTC (European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer) QLQ-C30 (Quality of Life Questionnaire core 30) - The QLQ-C30 is a standardized cancer-specific 30-itemed instrument. Scores are transformed linearly to a zero to 100 scale. A higher score on the functional scale and the global Health related Quality of Life indicates better functioning. In the current study, the items addressing global quality of life and health: "How would you rate your overall health during the past week?" and "How would you rate your overall quality of life during the past week?" will be used to get a pure expression of QoL. The EORTC QLQ-C30 scores in this study will be compared with QoL for Danish Cancer patients in the period before COVID-19 (https://www.cancer.dk/dyn/resources/File/file/3/8373/1574778638/kraeftens-bekaempelses-barometerundersoegelse-2019.pdf). Results on overall QoL is listed on page 36.
