Abstract

Nowadays estimation of quality of life in patients with different diseases is one of the most important indicators of treatment effectiveness. There is literature data that reveals association between quality of life and adherence to treatment, which may result in increasing therapy effectiveness. In real clinical practice a doctor needs contemporary instruments that can estimate the quality of life of the patients during traditional consultation and also during remote consultation and telemonitoring. One of the most popular instruments for estimation of quality of life is EQ-5D-3L questionnaire. In Samara State Medical University an electronic assistant was developed for remote estimation of quality of life with EQ-5D-3L questionnaire. An undeniable benefit of this assistant is simplicity, visibility and usability in traditional and remote medical consultations. After implementation of abovementioned electronic assistant in real clinical practice, a doctor can estimate the quality of life of a patient independently and also by means of remote medicine centres, where this data will be accumulated.
