Summary. In recent decades, more and more attention has been paid in health practice to the assessment of "health-related quality of life" (HRQOL). The analysis of quality of life indicators allows us to assess not only the health and well-being of the population, but also the quality of medical care and rehabilitation of patients, their effectiveness, and the state of medicine in general.
The aim of the study – to learn and analyze domestic and foreign literature sources on modern methods of assessing the quality of life of patients in medicine in the context of science.
Materials and Methods. The search for literature that is freely available in printed publications was conducted in electronic libraries and information resources of the Internet, PubMed, Medline. From the 238 thematic articles found, 76 scientific publications were included in the literature review.
Results. A review of data from the modern scientific medical literature on the study of quality of life in medicine for certain nosological forms of disease has been conducted. The most rational method of assessing the quality of life at the present stage is the use of standardized questionnaires in the study, which is necessary to obtain results that can be compared with each other, regardless of the country of research. Currently, a significant number of special descriptions are known. for nosologies such as diabetes, bronchial asthma, cancer, vascular pathology, etc. However, a significant part of them is under development and adaptations for different countries of the world. The process of cultural adaptation of questionnaires is extremely complex and requires close cooperation of international developers, translators, psychologists in order to use them in different ethnic and cultural and social groups.
Conclusions. Thus, a review of the literature suggests that the concept of "quality of life associated with health" (HRQOL) and its study is a new modern methodology of health care. It allows to evaluate the results of patients' treatment, rehabilitation programs and medical and social adaptation of patients, complementing traditional methods, both at the individual and group levels.
