OBJECTIVES: In the UK, abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) affect 5-10% of men and 1.5% of women >65yrs. Previous reports of symptoms and quality of life (QoL) were conflicting when no AAA-specific tools were available. The present work aimed to design three AAA-specific questionnaires: the Aneurysm-Dependent Quality of Life Questionnaire (Aneurysm-DQoL), Aneurysm Symptom Rating Questionnaire (Aneurysm-SRQ), and Aneurysm Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (Aneurysm-TSQ).
