Résumé
Evaluation of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) is necessary to ensure optimal management. Several scales for assessing HRQoL of patients with AD exist, in particular the Quality of Life in Alzheimer's Disease (QoL-AD), which includes an evaluation by the caregiver of the patient's HRQoL. The aim of this study was to identify factors associated with patient, caregiver and overall HRQoL as assessed by the QoL-AD.
