Background: Clinicians lack robust data on quality of life and social functioning after pancreatectomy limiting their ability guide patient decision-making aligned with patients' goals of care.
Methods: In this cross-sectional survey study, we administered the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Core Quality of Life questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30); pancreas-specific QLQ-PAN26; Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS™) Ability to Participate in Social Roles; and PROMIS™ Activities and social Isolation scales to all elective pancreatectomies (2021-2023). Results were compared to both normative data and between groups to determine factors predicting better QOL with a >10-12-point change considered clinically significant.
