Table 1. Major Changes Made in the SAC Versions of the BDI and TDI from the Original Instruments
Figure 1. Example of the self‐administered computerized version for the “functional impairment” component (labeled “activities” on the graph) of the transition dyspnea index (TDI). By pressing the up or down arrow on the keyboard, the patient could move the vertical bar up (for improvement) or down (for deterioration) to represent a change in dyspnea. An insert is present in the left portion of the figure which reminds the patient of his/her selection at baseline. (Full color version available online.)
