Multi-centre cross-sectional study reveals strong impacts of employment and muscle strength on HRQoL in adults on HPN, suggesting targets for care.
Adults receiving long-term HPN experience profound impairment in HRQoL, comparable with other high-burden chronic diseases. Variation in QoL was more strongly related to employment, education, muscle strength, oral intake and treatment burden than to diagnosis or HPN composition, highlighting modifiable targets for multidisciplinary care.
