Agreement between the EQ-5D-5L anxiety/depression dimension and GAD-7/PHQ-9 for psychological distress assessment in patients with hematologic malignancies.

BACKGROUND: Patients with hematologic malignancies (HMs) often experience psychological distress, significantly impairing health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and deteriorating clinical prognosis. Although the widely used instrument EuroQol 5-Dimension 5-Level (EQ-5D-5L) has been validated in the general population for accurately identifying the psychological symptoms, its performance in HM patients remains unclear.
