Successful translation and validation of the Multimorbidity Treatment Burden Questionnaire (NL-MTBQ)

Nivel has successfully completed the process of translating (in Dutch) and validating the questionnaire NL-MTBQ. The questionnaire can be used to identify the challenges Dutch patients face in managing their treatment and self-care practices, like medication usage. It also has the potential to enhance shared decision-making and provide additional support to those who need it.
