“…This is in line with what was found in a systematic review performing a metacon rmation analysis of HADS, where it found that the bifactor model is the most suitable (Norton et al, 2013). Other studies have identi ed an alternative one, two, or three-dimensional models (Annunziata et al, 2011;Emons et al, 2010;Gale et al, 2010;Ó. Galindo Vázquez et al, 2015;Matsudaira et al, 2009;Norton et al, 2013;Terol-Cantero et al, 2015).…”

“…Regarding the relationship of HADS with other variables, this study found moderate correlations with the general factor of emotional distress and the speci c factors with the dimensions of the BDI, which indicates a strength regarding the feasibility of HADS. To detect symptoms of depression, as previously evidenced in previous studies in cancer populations (O. Galindo Vázquez et al, 2015), other clinical populations such as patients with lung diseases (Phan et al, 2016), bromyalgia (Cabrera et al, 2015), congenital heart disease (Westhoff-Bleck et al, 2019) and non-clinical population (Ó. Galindo Vázquez et al, 2015). Furthermore, in the case of BAI, only a moderate relationship was found between the general and anxiety factor of HADS and the subjective symptoms factor of BAI, which is understandable given that HADS does not consider physical symptoms for the evaluation of these constructs, similar to previous studies (Aarstad et al, 2005).…”

The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) despite being widely studied in various populations, there is still no consensus on its factor structure. Our study aims to evaluate the psychometric properties of HADS in people with cancer. It involved 467 patients-diagnosed with cancer, who could read and write and were treated in a public institution specialized in cancer. It was found that HADS is best suited to a bifactorial structure where there is one general factor (emotional distress) and two specific factors (anxiety and depression). HADS proves to be invariant according to sex and years of education. It is moderately related to Beck's anxiety and depression inventory. Also, it presents acceptable levels of reliability and relationship with instruments used in the diagnosis of anxiety and depression. Its brevity, versatility, hospital-focused design, and extensive study make HADS a very important instrument in the detection of anxiety and depression in cancer patients.

The Spanish adaptation has been tested in different populations [45,46,47], has shown good internal consistency both for the anxiety subscale (α = 0.83) and for the depression subscale (α = 0.87) [48], and has shown sensitivity ranges between 0.74 and 0.84 and specificity ranging between 0.78 and 0.80 [49].

The complexity of palliative care means that the emotional distress and burden that primary family caregivers suffer under can be particularly high. The objective of this study was to determine the level of burden endured by these primary family caregivers and to identify the variables that predict it in the caregiving relatives of people who require home-based palliative care. A descriptive-correlational cross-sectional study was conducted. Socio-demographic and clinical data were collected from caregivers through a self-administered questionnaire that included questions from the 12-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-12), Zarit Caregiver Burden Interview (ZBI), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), Brief Resilient Coping Scale (BRCS), Post Traumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI), and Fatigue Assessment Scale (FAS). A total of 77 caregivers participated; 66.2% were women, and the mean age was 61.5 years. Most (62.3%) were providing care to cancer patients. From among these data, the presence of anxiety as a clinical problem (48.1%), a high average fatigue score (FAS) of 23.0 (SD = 8.5), and the prevalence of intense overload (41.6%) stood out. We found statistically significant correlations between the variables of burden, fatigue, post-traumatic growth, anxiety, and depression, with the latter two being the main predictive variables of burden. In addition, caregiver burden was associated with a worsening of health. Identifying the factors that influence the appearance of overburden will allow the specific needs of careers to be assessed in order to offer them emotional support within the healthcare environment.

“…Its strength lies in excluding MDD symptoms that may overlap with those of cancer and its treatment, allowing a better assessment of depression. It has been validated in many languages and clinical scenarios (López-Alvarenga et al, 2002; Galindo Vázquez et al, 2016; Barriguete Meléndez et al, 2017).…”

Comparing the hospital anxiety and depression scale to the Brief Edinburgh Depression Scale for identifying cases of major depressive disorder in advanced cancer palliative patients

Objective This study sought to compare the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Subscale (HADS-D) and Brief Edinburgh Depression Scale (BEDS) as case-finding tools of major depressive disorder in patients with advanced cancer in a palliative care service. Methods An observational study was performed which included patients with advanced cancer who attended the palliative care service at the National Institute of Cancer in Mexico. Patients were asked to fill out the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and BEDS and were then assessed by a psychiatrist to evaluate major depressive disorder (MDD) as per the DSM-5 criteria. The case-finding capability of each scale was determined using receiver operating characteristic curves, assessing the area under the curve (AUC) in comparison to the clinical diagnosis. Results Eighty-nine patients were included; median age was 57 years, and 71% were female. Among these, 19 patients were diagnosed with MDD during the interview. When comparing the self-reported scales, BEDS had a better performance compared with HADS-D (AUC 0.8541 vs. 0.7665). Limitations include a heterogeneous population and a limited sample size. Significance of results The BEDS outperformed the HADS-D tool in discriminating patients with and without depression. A BEDS cutoff value of ≥5 is suggested as a case-finding score for depression in this population.
