Palliative care Outcome Scale (POS) - IPOS-Renal and Translations

IPOS-Renal and Translations

IPOS-Renal in English

IPOS-Renal has been developed as a result of demand from clinicians to merge IPOS and POS-S Renal.

IPOS-Renal is a short measure (11 questions), combining the most common symptoms renal patients experience plus additional items from IPOS on concerns beyond symptoms, such as information needs, practical issues, family anxiety. IPOS has been validated in a mixed population of those with cancer and non-cancer diagnosis, including renal patients, and shows good content and construct validity, reliability, and responsiveness to change (results being prepared for publication).

IPOS-Renal is suitable for clinical use and a full scale validation of IPOS-Renal is planned soon.
