Abstract
In conclusion, our study proposes a scoring methodology-after reversing four inversely scored items-for the SOSG-OQ and shows that the questionnaire is a valid tool for the assessment of quality of life in patients with metastatic spine disease. The SOSG-OQ is superior to the EQ-5D in terms of coverage and internal consistency but consists of more questions.
