The ESAS rates each symptom from 0 to 10, with scores \u2265\u20095 indicating moderate\u2010to\u2010severe burden. The EQ\u20105D index score ranges from \u22120.59 to 1, with higher scores representing better health\u2010related quality of life.

The mean EQ\u20105D quality of life score was 0.03\u2009\u00b1\u20090.45, and the EQ\u20105D VAS score was 48.10\u2009\u00b1\u200911.85. The quality\u2010of\u2010life sub\u2010dimension scores showed that 60.1% had extreme problems with mobility, 69.3% in self\u2010care, 64.7% in usual activities, 21.6% in pain\/discomfort, and 15.7% in anxiety\/depression. The patient's quality of life decreased as the days of hospitalization increased. A significant negative correlation was observed between quality of life and symptom severity, indicating that quality of life decreased as symptoms worsened. According to the simple regression analyses, the variables pain, fatigue, insomnia, nausea, loss of appetite, depression, anxiety, feeling unwell, constipation, edema in the legs, age, and body mass index were found to be significant negative predictors of quality of life.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Palliative care patients had moderate symptom control and a poor quality of life.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Practice Implications<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Pharmacological and non\u2010pharmacological methods of symptom control in palliative care should be increasingly used.
