Evaluating the Appropriateness of Existing Health-Related Quality of Life Measures in Lichen Planus

ConclusionsThe psychometric and qualitative findings support the use of the OLPSSM and Scalpdex within specific LP subtypes but cautioned use of the DLQI. Administration of the ESS is not recommended in LP because of its poor psychometric performance. Given these limitations, further validation of non-specific disease measures is needed and/or the development of additional LP-specific PROMs.Trial RegistrationNCT04300296.
