摘要: Functional assessment is at the heart of understanding how a chronic disease and its therapy impact on patients. It puts into tangible terms what patient capable brings an understandable ‘human context’ to burden. status can be prognostic indicator. may also have role in treatment selection for individual patients used enter stratify clinical trials. remains seen whether it will possible practical use end-points such as function (and other related ‘quality life’) direct management. Using cancer cachexia paradigm, this chapter sets out discuss some broader issues functional assessment. New approaches assessing preliminary experience with emerging technology are presented.
