About this study

This study has investigated the quality of life of patients with vestibular schwannoma using this specific scale prospectively, whether treated surgically or monitored.

Read the detailed description

The PANQOL scale (Penn Acoustic Neuroma Quality-of-Life) is a specific questionnaire containing 26 items Interviewing 7 areas: hearing, balance, facial expression, anxiety, vitality, pain, and 'general health. The score is encrypted from 0 to 100, and the highest score is a reflection of the best possible quality of life. This score has been translated from French into English and validated according to the reverse translation rules by usual Oddon et al.

Three questions for this score were added, evaluating quality of life parameters that seem particularly interesting: the first regarding the difficulties in driving, the second questioning the recovery of a "normal" life, and the third assessing difficulties in working life.

The questionnaires are sent to the patient in the form of a custom web link generated on the online survey platform SurveyMonkey, and integrated into the body of an email sent from the mailbox of the investigator Hospital. There is any identifying or indirectly identifying data on the questionnaire online, guaranteeing protection of the rights of the individual. Only the principal investigator and co-investigator retain the link between the coded identity of persons undergoing research used to associate personal health data and their name (s) and name (s) (correspondence table retained securely to the paper).
