RationaleAlthough lung transplantation aims to improve health-related quality of life (HRQL), existing instruments fail to include health domains considered important in this population.ObjectivesWe aimed to develop a comprehensive lung transplant-specific instrument to address this shortcoming.MethodsWe developed a pool of 126 candidate items addressing domains previously identified as important by lung transplant recipients. Through cognitive interviews conducted in 43 transplant recipients, items deemed irrelevant or redundant were dropped. The 84 remaining items were field tested in lung transplant recipients. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were used to evaluate the factor structure, and scales were evaluated for internal ...
