الوصف: | Improvement in the quality of life (QoL) is a major goal of therapy for heart failure (HF) patients. Physical well-being as an important component of QoL has not yet been sufficiently covered by disease-specific assessment instruments. The aim of the study was to validate the questionnaire for assessing subjective physical well-being (FEW16) in HF patients with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) from the exercise training in diastolic heart failure (Ex-DHF-P) trial.A total of 64 HFpEF patients (65 years, 56 % female) were randomized to usual routine treatment with (n = 44) or without training (n = 20). At baseline and 3 months, patients were clinically evaluated and assessed using appropriate questionnaires on the QoL (SF36), physical well-being (FEW16) and depression (PHQ-D).The FEW16 showed good values for Cronbachs' alpha coefficients (0.85-0.93). The cross-validity with SF36 and PHQ-D was highly significant but more so for psychological aspects. At baseline, the FEW16 score correlated with age, the subscale resilience with age and the 6 min walking distance test. At follow-up, the total and resilience scores had improved in the training group. In contrast to the SF36, the FEW16 did not detect differences between the groups in Ex-DHF-P.The FEW16 questionnaire showed good internal consistency and correlation with SF36, its total score and resilience had improved after training; however, it did not reflect different changes between the study groups. The FEW16 is therefore more suited to assess general/mental well-being than the subjective physical well-being. |
