The effect on quality of life by healing leg ulcers is not known and no validated disease-specific tool is available for measuring health-related quality of life (HRQoL) for people with venous leg ulcers. The objective of this paper was to compare four generic instruments [MOS 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36); EuroQol (EQ); McGill Short Form Pain Questionnaire (SF-MPQ) and the Frenchay Activities Index (FAI)] used for measuring HRQoL in people with venous leg ulcers, and to offer guidance on the most appropriate tool for researchers.
