Introduction
QoL after Chemo/Radiotherapy in Gastric Cancer
 Stomach adenocarcinoma is
the most common form of
gastric cancer (95% of the
cases).1
 Stomach cancer is a
multifactorial disease:diet,
hereditary factors,
Helicobacter pylori infection
are possible causes.2-3
 Tobacco smoking has also
been clearly accepted as
increasing the risk of stomach
cancer.4

Introduction
QoL after Chemo/Radiotherapy in Gastric Cancer
 Chemotherapy is the use
of chemical agents to stop
cancer
cells
from
growing.6
 Chemotherapy is
considered a systemic
treatment.6

Introduction
QoL after Chemo/Radiotherapy in Gastric Cancer
 Radiotherapy uses high
energy x-rays to destroy
cancer cells.7
 A small dose of
radiotherapy may be very
helpful to relieve pain.7

Introduction
 These multiple treatments
have different
consequences in Quality of
Life (QoL) in
patients.8
QoL after Chemo/Radiotherapy in Gastric Cancer
 QoL cannot be yet
universally defined8,
however there are many
attempts to do so.
 Schipper et al. proposed:
“the functional effect of illness and its consequent therapy
upon a patient, as perceived by the patient”.9

Aim
QoL after Chemo/Radiotherapy in Gastric Cancer
____________________________________________
• To review which instruments were used to measure
the QoL in patients with gastric cancer submitted to
chemo and radiotherapy.
• To summarize QoL measures across studies.

Results
QoL after Chemo/Radiotherapy in Gastric Cancer
 116 articles were found;
 Due to the application of the inclusion and exclusion
criteria, 10 were included and 76 were excluded;
 Some of the articles found couldn’t be read and so we
don’t have information referred to them;
 Only 1 of the included articles didn’t have a validated
paper of the instrument.
