PND5 Relationship between the Short-Form 12 (SF-12) and Schizophrenia Symptom Rating Scales in a Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial of Paliperidone Palmitate 3 Monthly Formulation

Abstract

There is increasing emphasis on understanding impact of core symptoms and functioning on well-being and quality-of-life (QOL) to achieve holistic outcomes in schizophrenia. The short-form-12 (SF-12) is a widely used generic measure of self-reported health-related QOL (HRQOL). Relationship of SF-12 as an outcome measure of HRQOL in patients with schizophrenia with clinically relevant symptom rating scales for schizophrenia was evaluated.
