ICIQ-Female Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms Long Form
|
| Purpose of module |
The ICIQ-FLUTS is a patient-completed questionnaire for evaluating female lower
urinary tract symptoms and impact on quality of life (QoL) in research and clinical
practice. This questionnaire is a more in-depth assessment than the ICIQ-FLUTS
and will be of increased use where a more detailed assessment is required typically
in research, although similarly in both primary and secondary care institutions.
The ICIQ-FLUTS Long Form provides a detailed summary of the level and impact
of urinary symptoms and to facilitate patient-clinician discussions. It is an
ideal research tool to assess outcome from various treatment modalities and also
can be of use in epidemiological surveys. |
