Summary of review findings

Bladder cancer population Best performing PROM using COSMIN Further information Alternatives Further information
All (or a variety of stages/grades) BCI Suggested that BCI is used alongside generic and/or cancer‐generic PROMs as interpretation can be difficult FACT‐Bl FACT‐Bl can be used to collect BC‐specific and cancer‐generic HRQL information, as the PROM includes FACT‐G
MIBC FACT‐VCI FACT‐VCI can be used to collect BC‐specific and cancer‐generic HRQL information, as the PROM includes FACT‐G
FACT‐VCI is only suitable to use with MIBC patients who have had a cystectomy
EORTC QLQ‐BLM30 EORTC QLQ‐BLM30 can be used to collect BC‐specific and cancer‐generic HRQL information, as the PROM can be used with EORTC QLQ‐C30
EORTC QLQ‐BLM30 is suitable to use with both cystectomy and conservative treatment patients
IONB‐PRO IONB‐PRO is only suitable to use with patients who have a neobladder
NMIBC Difficult to determine as CAVICAVENMI only evaluated in one study and both EORTC QLQ‐NMIBC24 and CAVICAVENMI scored well EORTC QLQ‐NMIBC24 can be used to collect BC‐specific and cancer‐generic HRQL information, as the PROM can be used with EORTC QLQ‐C30 CAVICAVENMI CAVICAVENMI incorporates both BC‐specific and cancer‐generic questions within fewer items than the combination of EORTC QLQ‐C30 and EORTC QLQ‐NMIBC24
