IBS-QOL (Irritable Bowel Syndrome Quality of Life)

IBS-QOL (Irritable Bowel Syndrome Quality of Life) is a specialized questionnaire that assesses how irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) affects a person’s daily life. It measures aspects such as physical comfort, emotional well-being, social interactions, and work performance. By understanding these factors, healthcare providers can better evaluate the impact of IBS on an individual’s quality of life and tailor treatment plans accordingly. Essentially, IBS-QOL helps capture the personal and practical effects of IBS beyond just physical symptoms, providing a comprehensive view of how the condition influences overall well-being.
