The subjective experience of cancer survivorship can be assessed by various patient-reported outcome (PRO) methods, including measures of symptom burden and health-related quality of life (HRQOL). Symptom burden includes the presence and severity of multiple symptoms and the level of distress caused by symptoms that go untreated or unrelieved. The concept of symptom burden is more limited in scope than HRQOL but may provide information that better describes the status of various stages of survivorship. This paper contrasts symptom burden with general HRQOL and addresses the importance of including symptom burden as research tool throughout the trajectory of cancer survivorship.
