人们对将生活质量（QOL）纳入胃肠病学越来越感兴趣。与内窥镜记录的治愈率等客观变量一起，生活质量可以为评估医疗方案提供更好的基础。然而，尽管生活质量是一个需要考虑的重要方面，但很少有研究对上消化道疾病患者的这些方面进行评估。评估生活质量的方法可能为评估治疗效果提供了更好的可能性，但也提出了一些关于如何选择、利用和解释所获得结果的问题。这项工作的目的是探索一些可能性，但也挑战，在评估生活质量的患者上消化道诊断。
There is a growing interest in including Quality of Life (QOL) in gastroenterology. Along with objective variables such as healing rate, as recorded with endoscopy, QOL may give a better basis for evaluating medical treatment regimens. However, although QOL is an important aspect to consider, few studies in patients with upper gastrointestinal diseases have evaluated these aspects. The methods for assessing QOL may offer improved possibilities with which to evaluate the impact of therapies but also raise a number of questions concerning how to select, utilize and interpret the results obtained. This work is aimed at exploring some of the possibilities, but also challenges, in the evaluation of Quality of Life in patients with upper gastrointestinal diagnosis.
