      dysplasia resulting from human papillomavirus infection.

AB  - Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is the most common sexually transmitted 
      infection in the USA, and has major physical and psychological consequences 
      including fear, anxiety and stigma. To date, there is no measure of 
      health-related quality of life specifically designed to assess symptoms and 
      functioning for people with cervical dysplasia resulting from HPV infection. In 
      the present study, we set out to develop a disease-specific measure of 
      health-related quality of life among women with low-grade cervical dysplasia. We 
      conducted literature reviews, open-ended interviews with patients, clinician 
      surveys and cognitive interviews which guided item development. The result is a 
      preliminary 36-item measure, the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness 
      Therapy-Cervical Dysplasia (FACIT-CD), which sets out to assess the physical and 
      psychological health-related quality-of-life aspects of cervical dysplasia and 
      will be validated in an upcoming study.
