Brief summary

The main aim of the study is to assess the quality of life of people with Crohn's disease after treatment for complex perianal fistulas (CPF) in a standard clinic setting. Study doctors will review the participants' medical records in the last 3 years. Participants will also be asked to visit the clinic once to complete 1 questionnaire on their quality of life.

Detailed description

This is a national, observational, cross-sectional study. The study will assess the general QoL among CD participants with CPFs in the Portuguese routine clinical practice. This study will enroll approximately 80 participants. All participants will be enrolled in one observational cohort. The data will be collected retrospectively, from the medical records, on healthcare resource utilization and on the pharmacological and surgical treatments used for the management of CPFs in the three years prior to the inclusion visit. This multi-center trial will be conducted in Portugal. The overall duration of this study is approximately 8 months.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Meta-Scores of the 12-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-12) Questionnaire's Physical Component Score [PCS-12]At inclusion visit (Day 1)SF-12 is 12-item self-report that assesses physical and mental health related general quality of life (QoL) whose results are expressed in terms of two meta-scores: the physical component summary (PCS) and the mental component summary (MCS), of which the PCS component is presented in this outcome measure. The PCS score has a range of 0 to 100. Higher scores indicate better physical functioning.
Meta-Scores of the SF-12 Questionnaire's Mental Component Score [MCS-12])At inclusion visit (Day 1)SF-12 is 12-item self-report that assesses physical and mental health related general quality of life (QoL) whose results are expressed in terms of two meta-scores: the PCS and the MCS, of which the MCS component is presented in this outcome measure. The MCS score has a range of 0 to 100. Higher scores indicate better mental functioning.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Sexual Quality of Life-Female (SQOL-F) Questionnaire Score for Female ParticipantsAt inclusion visit (Day 1)SQOL-F assessed the relationship between female sexual dysfunction and quality of life. It consists of 18 items, rated using a six-point scale (completely agree to completely disagree). The total score can range from 18 to 108 points. Higher scores indicate better female sexual quality of life.
Fecal Incontinence as Assessed by Wexner ScoreAt inclusion visit (Day 1)Fecal incontinence is measured by Wexner score. It consists of five questions to assess the degree of incontinence (solid, liquid, gas, wears pad, lifestyle alteration). The frequency of each type of incontinence is rated on a scale ranging from 0 (never) to 4 (always or to once a day) so that the sum of the frequencies add up to a total score that ranges from 0 to 20. Higher scores indicate worse fecal incontinence.
Work Productivity and Activity Impairment (WPAI) as Assessed by WPAI Questionnaire ScoreAt inclusion visit (Day 1)WPAI score was used to describe the indirect healthcare resources. It is self-administered 6-item questionnaire (scale of 0-10) which assesses the effect of disease on work productivity in the past 7 days obtained for absenteeism (work time missed), presenteeism (impairment at work / reduced on-the-job effectiveness), work productivity loss (overall work impairment / absenteeism plus presenteeism) and activity impairment / disability. Scores are presented as percentages (multiplying the scores by 100), Domain scores are expressed as a percentage, with a range of scores form 0-100%, with 0% representing no impact on productivity and 100% representing complete impact on productivity. Higher scores indicate greater impairment.
Number of Participants Characterized Based on Healthcare Resource Utilization (HCRU) Within Previous 3 YearsUp to 3 years prior to the inclusion visit at Day 1Number of participants characterized based on HCRU associated with complex perianal fistulas (CPFs) management within the three years prior to the inclusion visit were collected. HCRU includes gastroenterology and other medical specialty appointments for the management of CPF; emergency room visits due to CPF; hospitalizations (greater than or equal to \[\>=\] 24 hours) due to CPF, and intensive care unit (ICU) admission. Only categories with at least one participant with event are reported.
Number of Participants Categorized Based on Sociodemographic and Anthropometric CharacteristicsAt inclusion visit (Day 1)Sociodemographic and anthropometric variables included age (in years), sex (male or female), and body mass index (BMI).
Short Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (SIBDQ) ScoreAt inclusion visit (Day 1)The SIBDQ is an instrument used to assess QoL and is a disease-specific health-related quality of life questionnaire, that consists of 10 questions, each question is scored on a scale from 1 (poor quality of life) to 7 (good quality of life). The total score is reported and ranges from 10 to 70 with a higher score indicating a better health-related QoL.
Number of Participants Characterized Based on Pharmacological Treatments and Surgeries for CPFUp to 3 years prior to the inclusion visit at Day 1For each pharmacological treatment (antibiotics, monoclonal antibodies, immunosuppressants, and others), participants were divided into three categories (current users, past users, and non-users) considering the three years prior to the inclusion visit. Surgical treatment in the last three years for the management of CPF was also recorded. A participant may be included in more than one category.
Correlation Between General QoL PCS-12 and the Participants Socio-demographic, Anthropometric and Clinical Characteristics Assessed as PCS Score Stratified Based on Qualitative VariablesAt inclusion visit (Day 1)The following qualitative variables were considered for the bivariate analysis: sex, smoking status, employment status, extraintestinal manifestations of Crohn's disease, Montreal classification for CD disease (age at onset, disease location, and disease behavior), fistula type and position, CD disease activity, treatment-naïve, surgery-naïve, type of surgery, and presence of seton, perianal abscess and anorectal stricture. PCS-12 scores were transformed to a 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better quality of life.
Correlation Between General QoL MCS-12 and the Participants Socio-demographic, Anthropometric and Clinical Characteristics Assessed as MCS Score Stratified Based on Qualitative VariablesAt inclusion visit (Day 1)The following qualitative variables were considered for the bivariate analysis: sex, smoking status, employment status, extraintestinal manifestations of Crohn's disease, Montreal classification for CD disease (age at onset, disease location, and disease behavior), fistula type and position, CD disease activity, treatment-naïve, surgery-naïve, type of surgery, and presence of seton, perianal abscess and anorectal stricture. MCS-12 scores were transformed to a 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better quality of life.
Correlation Between General QoL PCS-12 and the Participants Socio-demographic, Anthropometric and Clinical Characteristics Assessed as Correlation Coefficient Stratified Based on Quantitative VariablesAt inclusion visit (Day 1)The following quantitative variables were considered for bivariate analysis: age, BMI, time between CD diagnosis date and date of study visit, total number of CPFs per participant, time between first CPF diagnosis date and date of study visit, Perianal Disease Activity Index (PDAI) score, number of internal and external fistula openings, time since seton placement, SIBDQ score, SQoL-M score (for male participants) and SQoL-F score (for female participants), and Wexner score. Data was collected and reported as number for all the quantitative variables as the associations (correlation coefficient) between general QoL and the quantitative variables was calculated using Spearman Correlation Coefficients.
Correlation Between General QoL MCS-12 and the Participants Socio-demographic, Anthropometric and Clinical Characteristics Assessed as Correlation Coefficient Stratified Based on Quantitative VariablesAt inclusion visit (Day 1)The following quantitative variables were considered for bivariate analysis: age, BMI, time between CD diagnosis date and date of study visit, total number of CPFs per participant, time between first CPF diagnosis date and date of study visit, PDAI score, number of internal and external fistula openings, time since seton placement, SIBDQ score, SQoL-M score (for male participants) and SQoL-F score (for female participants), and Wexner score. Data was collected and reported as number for all the quantitative variables as the associations (correlation coefficient) between general QoL and the quantitative variables was calculated using Spearman Correlation Coefficients.
Number of Participants With Moderate to Severe Crohn's Disease (CD) Stratified by Clinical CharacteristicsAt inclusion visit (Day 1)The Montreal classification index for CD is used to classify the extent of the disease activity. It consists of two parameters: location and behavior of the disease activity. There are four different disease locations presented: Location 1 (L1) is ileum, Location 2 (L2) is colonic disease, Location 3 (L3) is ileocolon and Location 4 (L4) is isolated upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract disease. The first three categories (L1-L3) is combined with L4 where disease sites coexisted. There are 4 different categories for the behavior of the disease activity: Behavior 1 (B1) is non stenosing or non penetrating; Behavior 2 (B2) was stenosing; Behavior 3 (B3) is penetrating and p as perianal disease (p). The first 3 categories (B1 to B3) could be added with p to indicate coexisting perianal disease. Perianal disease (p) is defined as the presence of perianal abscesses or fistulae.
Sexual Quality of Life-Male (SQOL-M) Questionnaire Score for Male ParticipantsAt inclusion visit (Day 1)SQOL-M assessed the relationship between male sexual dysfunction and quality of life. It contains 11 items, each items are scored from 1 to 6 points (worst to best), completely agree = 1 to completely disagree = 6. The total score can range from 11 to 66 points. Higher scores indicate better male sexual quality of life.

Correlation Between General QoL PCS-12 and the Participants Socio-demographic, Anthropometric and Clinical Characteristics Assessed as Correlation Coefficient Stratified Based on Quantitative Variables

The following quantitative variables were considered for bivariate analysis: age, BMI, time between CD diagnosis date and date of study visit, total number of CPFs per participant, time between first CPF diagnosis date and date of study visit, Perianal Disease Activity Index (PDAI) score, number of internal and external fistula openings, time since seton placement, SIBDQ score, SQoL-M score (for male participants) and SQoL-F score (for female participants), and Wexner score. Data was collected and reported as number for all the quantitative variables as the associations (correlation coefficient) between general QoL and the quantitative variables was calculated using Spearman Correlation Coefficients.

Time frame: At inclusion visit (Day 1)

Population: All eligible participants with CD and CPAF were included in the analysis. Number analyzed is the number of participants with data available for analysis in the specified category.

Fecal Incontinence as Assessed by Wexner Score

Fecal incontinence is measured by Wexner score. It consists of five questions to assess the degree of incontinence (solid, liquid, gas, wears pad, lifestyle alteration). The frequency of each type of incontinence is rated on a scale ranging from 0 (never) to 4 (always or to once a day) so that the sum of the frequencies add up to a total score that ranges from 0 to 20. Higher scores indicate worse fecal incontinence.

Time frame: At inclusion visit (Day 1)

Population: All eligible participants with CD and CPAF were included in the analysis. Overall number analyzed is the number of participants with data available for analyses.

Number of Participants With Moderate to Severe Crohn's Disease (CD) Stratified by Clinical Characteristics

The Montreal classification index for CD is used to classify the extent of the disease activity. It consists of two parameters: location and behavior of the disease activity. There are four different disease locations presented: Location 1 (L1) is ileum, Location 2 (L2) is colonic disease, Location 3 (L3) is ileocolon and Location 4 (L4) is isolated upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract disease. The first three categories (L1-L3) is combined with L4 where disease sites coexisted. There are 4 different categories for the behavior of the disease activity: Behavior 1 (B1) is non stenosing or non penetrating; Behavior 2 (B2) was stenosing; Behavior 3 (B3) is penetrating and p as perianal disease (p). The first 3 categories (B1 to B3) could be added with p to indicate coexisting perianal disease. Perianal disease (p) is defined as the presence of perianal abscesses or fistulae.

Work Productivity and Activity Impairment (WPAI) as Assessed by WPAI Questionnaire Score

WPAI score was used to describe the indirect healthcare resources. It is self-administered 6-item questionnaire (scale of 0-10) which assesses the effect of disease on work productivity in the past 7 days obtained for absenteeism (work time missed), presenteeism (impairment at work / reduced on-the-job effectiveness), work productivity loss (overall work impairment / absenteeism plus presenteeism) and activity impairment / disability. Scores are presented as percentages (multiplying the scores by 100), Domain scores are expressed as a percentage, with a range of scores form 0-100%, with 0% representing no impact on productivity and 100% representing complete impact on productivity. Higher scores indicate greater impairment.
