HOW TO USE QTOOL:

Please take a look at the video below, which explains how to use QTool. If you lose your place, we have provided some ‘time-stamps’ below it – so you can easily find the information on the bits you need.

We show you how to start the questionnaires, and enter your information into QTool, and how to fill in all of the information if you forgot first time or didn’t get around to it.

As you will see, it is quick and easy to get up and running! If you have questions on how to do this, please feel free to get in touch using the ‘contact info’ at the bottom of the page.

When you have watched the video, simply click on the Purple Button above or the QTOOL Logo to bring you to the QTool page, so you can complete the questionnaires.

What is the FIT Study?

The Functional outcomes In Trauma study is a questionnaire-based research study, which aims to see how well patients recover following Major Trauma (Serious Injuries) according to their answers on the questionnaires.

We will be using an ONLINE Questionnaire program, designed by the University of Leeds, called QTOOL to gather the information.

 

Please see below for more about the Study Background, Study Design, and to view Participant Information Sheets for the different cohorts.

There are also some videos below on this page if you’d like to learn more about the Study!
