Health related quality of life and satisfaction with life in Croatia Gorka Vuletic, BPsychol, PhD Andrija Stampar School of Public Health Medical Faculty, University of Zagreb Croatia

Republic of Croatia One of 6 former Yugoslavian republics Estimated Croatian population cca. 4,500,000 Capital city Zagreb ~ 800,000

How did Croatia become involved in QoL research? Deakin Uni (PhD research) = basis for further research in Croatia  The 2003 Croatian National Health survey  Through the survey we obtained Population normative data for: Subjective quality of life (satisfaction with life) Subjective quality of life (satisfaction with life) Health status (SF-36) Health status (SF-36)

Project Croatian National Health Survey 2003 Founded by World Bank Founded by World Bank Co-operators: Co-operators: Republic of Croatia Ministry of Health Republic of Croatia Ministry of Health Canadian Society for International Health Canadian Society for International Health Project team was formed from: Project team was formed from: Andrija Stampar School of Public Health & Andrija Stampar School of Public Health & National Institute for Public Health

Sample  10,766 households were selected to participate in the survey (based on Census 2001).  Out of these selected households a response was obtained from 9,070 individuals (overall response rate 84.3%).  The questionnaire was administered face-to-face to respondents by trained public health nurses.  Representative for Croatian adult population in terms of its regional, gender and age structure.

Participants were asked about illnesses, health related behaviour, health related quality of life, use of health care services and subjective quality of life. Participants were asked about illnesses, health related behaviour, health related quality of life, use of health care services and subjective quality of life. Health related quality of life was measured by Health related quality of life was measured by → Health status questionnaire ( SF-36) which measure self perceived health status.

SF-36 8 dimensions of health Physical functioning Physical functioning Role limitation due to physical problems Role limitation due to physical problems Pain Pain General health perception General health perception Energy / vitality Energy / vitality Social functioning Social functioning Role limitation due to emotional problems Role limitation due to emotional problems Mental health Mental health Scored 0-100

Measure of Subjective Quality of Life: How are you satisfied with your life as a whole? CompletelyCompletely dissatisfied satisfied Original scores were converted and presented in a form of percentage of scale maximum (% SM)

RESULTS Quality of life (QoL)

Conclusion (for further health surveys in Croatia) Importance of measuring QOL was recognised Importance of measuring QOL was recognised Subjective QOL incorporated in health surveys is independent of health related QOL measures so it will be measured independently. Subjective QOL incorporated in health surveys is independent of health related QOL measures so it will be measured independently.
