Interventions and Outcome Measures

Interventions

FACE-Q scale

FACE-Q is a recently developed and validated patient reported outcome measure (PROM) tool that allows clinicians to assess patient perspectives after skin cancer surgery of the face.The PROM is used to assess the perspective and impact of skin cancer as well as its treatment on the patient's quality of life (QoL). Patients with skin cancer may have increased anxiety, social isolation, and cosmetic concerns after surgery. The FACE-Q utilizes five scales to measure the psychometric, QoL, patient experience, and cosmetic outcomes. Raw scores are transformed to a 0-100 scale with a higher score indicating a better outcome.

Any studies using FACE-Q for facial surgery reconstruction at our center may be eligible for inclusion in the database

Primary outcome measure

  • FACE-Q score [ Time Frame: 12 months ]
