“…SXI was derived from the Xerostomia Inventory (XI), an 11‐item summated rating scale that was developed by Thomson et al and has been shown to have acceptable concurrent validity and temporal stability . The SXI consists of 5 items more directly related to xerostomia than the longer version and was validated for clinical and epidemiologic research when tested in samples from the Netherlands, New Zealand, Australia and Japan …”

“…XI score was calculated by the addition of the individual scores of the 11 items in the XI. SXI score was calculated by the addition of the individual scores of 5 items of XI after the responses for individual questions were reduced to three levels . The pre‐intervention scores were subtracted from the post‐intervention scores to calculate the change scores for both XI and SXI scores.…”

This study aimed to assess the short-term effect of alcohol-containing mouthrinse versus mouthrinse without alcohol on xerostomia scores reported by Xerostomia Inventory (XI) scores and short version of the Xerostomia Inventory (SXI). This study was a two-group parallel-arm randomised controlled trial where participants were randomly allocated to twice a day for 7 days use of either alcohol-containing or alcohol-free mouthrinse. Allocation was concealed. The participants, the outcome assessors and the statistician were blinded to the allocation status. A total of 163 participants completed the pre-and post-intervention data collection. There were no statistically significant differences between the study groups with respect to demographics or other measured independent variables. After adjusting for age and gender, regression coefficient (95% CI) for XI was 0.02 (-1.72-2.29) and that for SXI was 0.03 (-0.54-0.83). Both adjusted and unadjusted models showed no significant differences in change in XI or SXI. The mean difference in scores between the groups for XI was -0.45 (-2.45-1.55) and for SXI was 0.05 (-0.65-0.75). There was no significant difference in the change in xerostomia levels as a result of short-term exposure to alcohol-containing mouthrinse, when compared to those exposed to alcohol-free mouthrinse. Short-term use of alcohol-containing mouthrinse does not result in worsening xerostomia.

“…The incidence of xerostomia was assessed by means of the Summated Xerostomia Inventory (the Dutch version) at 1 month and 12 months after radioactive iodine ablation . This is a 5‐item summated rating scale, combining the responses to 5 individual items into a single scale score, which represents the severity of xerostomia.…”

“…Patients who had XI score larger than five will be diagnosed with xerostomia. Hence, according to the XI, the more the patient had a feeling of xerostomia, the higher the xerostomia score wold be, which range beetween 5-15 [12]. For QoL, we used the QoL qestionnaire published by Dirix et al In that study, 15 questions evaluated QoL with Likert scale, as follows: 1: not at al; 2: a little; 3: moderately; 4: quite a lot; and 5: very much.…”

Abstract-Xerostomia is one of the most common complications caused by head and neck cancer radiotherapy. Radiation caused the structure of the salivary glands change thus the saliva production was reduced. This can significantly affect the quality of life of the patients by changing physical, psychological and social function, pain which had an impact on the successful of the radiotherapy treatment. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of xerostomia on the quality of life among head and neck cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy at RSUP H. Adam Malik Medan. This was an observational analytic research with cross sectional study approach. 40 subjects of head and neck cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy selected by purposive sampling and data were collected by medical records, anamnesis, and interview. The results of study showed from the 40 subjects, 26 patients (65%) with xerostomia have low quality of life (57.7%), while 14 patients (35%) that not experiencing xerostomia has higher quality of life (85.7%). In conclusion, it is proven that there were significant relationship (p=0.008) between xerostomia and the quality of life among the head and neck cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy.
