This questionnaire is designed to measure satisfaction with past/present treatment for hypothyroidism.
ThyTSQs and ThyTSQc: Choosing which version to use and when
People can use just the ThyTSQs. The ThyTSQc is relevant for studies involving an intervention (such as a change in dose or education / training). Whether or not you use the ThyTSQc, you should always use the ThyTSQs at least once during your study, preferably at the beginning. This will anchor your findings on the ThyTSQc, if you do go on to use the change version as well as the status version. The ThyTSQc will tell you how people’s satisfaction and perceived symptoms of hypothyroidism have changed; it doesn’t tell you whether it was high or low to start with, or where it is at endpoint. We recommend that you use the ThyTSQs at baseline and endpoint (and at one or two interim points in a 12-month trial) and the ThyTSQc (if used) at one follow-up only.
