The Leiden Bother and Needs Questionnaire for patients with Pituitary disease (LBNQ-Pituitary) is a patient reported outcome measure (PROM) that can be used to assess whether patients are bothered by the complaints related to their pituitary disease, as well as their need for support from healthcare providers for these complaints. This PROM covers five subscales i.e., Mood problems, Negative illness perceptions, Physical- and Cognitive complaints, Issues with Sexual functioning, and Issues with Social functioning, and consists of 33 items and one open-ended question. For a current overview of available translations of the LBNQ-Pituitary see below.
The use of the LBNQ-Pituitary is free for non-profit purposes (e.g., clinical care, clinical research).
