European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-F17)

Hearing the Patient’s Voice: Assessing Quality of Life Among Oncology Day Care Patients Using the EORTC QLQ-F17 at Sunway Medical Centre Penang

The European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-F17) is a validated patient-reported outcome measure used to evaluate multidimensional well-being during ambulatory cancer care.

Our data demonstrates strong patient-reported functioning across specific operational domains—led by physical, social, and cognitive capabilities—while highlighting a distinct variance in overall quality of life.

These findings pinpoint key targets for holistic supportive care, reinforcing Sunway Medical Centre Penang's commitment to clinical excellence, continuous quality improvement, and patient-centred oncology care.
