Abstract
The purposes of this study were to investigate the
life quality and medical behaviors of terminal cancer
patients and related factors in Taiwan. The method of
sampling was purposive sampling. The sample was
composed of 64 terminal cancer patients from medical
center. Data was collected by interview and
questionnaire. The data analysis was used by SPSS
computer programs. The major findings of the study
were: 1) the SIS score was 6.7±2.4 and MQOL total
mean score was 6.1±1.5; 2) the mean scores of MQOL
subscale, the rank orders from high to low were
support (8.0±2.8), existential well-being (6.1±2.0),
psycho-logical symptoms (6.1±2.0), physical symptom
(4.2±2.8), and physically well-being (4.2±3.2); 3) The
MQOL total score had moderate correlation with SIS
(r=0.29, p<0.05). The SIS correlated significantly with
the psychological symptoms subscale of MQOL
(r=0.33, p<0.01); 4) ECOG-PSR had highly significant
negative correlation with physical well-being (r=-0.34,
p<0.001) and physical symptoms (r=-0.44, p<0.001).
The most important predictor of received palliative
care was attitude toward palliative care. The MQOL
scale in Chinese version was constructed by physical
symptoms (items 1-3), psychological well-being (items
5-8), existential well-being (items 9-14), and support
(items 15-16). The item 4, ‘Over the past two days, I
have felt: physically (terrible/physically well)’, was
also treated as a single item (physical well-being)
similar with English version. The results of factor
analysis for the construct validity of the MQOL
Chinese version is acceptable and similar to the results
in two Cohen’s studies for terminal cancer patient in
palliative care unit (the English version, 1997 and
2001).
