Popis: | Although health-related quality of life (HRQoL) measure instruments in functional dyspepsia (FD) have been available for many years, as in other functional gastrointestinal disorders, their real application in clinical practice, beyond therapeutic studies, is unknown. For first time, the new Rome IV diagnostic criteria include the consideration of symptom severity enough to impact on usual patients' activities. A new focus on the management of this entity is proposed, therefore we should carefully revise the HRQoL measures and define its real role in our clinical practice. |
