Abstract
Conclusions: Although many somatic symptoms were present, HPN-dependent patients reported primarily psychosocial problems in daily life. To improve QoL, HPN teams should assess somatic as well as psychosocial aspects standard. Given the large proportion of patients with depressive disorders, therapies such as anti-depressant medication, psychosocial support and cognitive training, should be offered.
