Abstract

This is a PDF file of an article that has undergone enhancements after acceptance, such as the addition of a cover page and metadata, and formatting for readability, but it is not yet the definitive version of record. This version will undergo additional copyediting, typesetting and review before it is published in its final form, but we are providing this version to give early visibility of the article.

Feasibility of completing Multidimensional Dyspnea Profile and Dyspnea-12 over the telephone in patients with oxygen-dependent disease

“…D-12 is validated for quantifying different aspects of breathlessness across several cardiorespiratory diseases such as COPD, chronic heart failure or interstitial lung disease. 13 15 It is easy to understand and is usually completed within 5 min. 10 15 16 The instrument provides an overview of overall breathlessness severity with regard to breathlessness intensity, unpleasantness and psychological response.…”

“…10 However, these instruments pertain to the symptom's impact on physical function and HrQoL and do not measure breathlessness itself, nor associated dimensions such as its emotional impact (ie, anxiety, depression or fear). Multiple dimensions of breathlessness can be assessed through the instruments Multidimensional Dyspnea Profile (MDP) [11][12][13] and Dyspnea-12 (D-12).

Validation of the Dyspnoea-12 and Multidimensional Dyspnea profile among older Swedish men in the population

“…The instruments Dyspnoea-12 (D12) [ 7 ] and the Multidimensional Dyspnea Profile (MDP) [ 8 ] are commonly used to measure multiple dimensions of breathlessness in experimental and clinical observational studies [ 9 , 10 ]. The instruments are not interchangeable [ 11 ].…”
