Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ)
The Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) is a 23-item, multidimensional self-report measure that evaluates heart failure-related symptoms, functional limitations, and quality of life in patients with cardiomyopathy and heart failure of all severities. Developed by Spertus and colleagues in 2000, the KCCQ provides six disease-specific domains and a clinically summary score, making it ideal for comprehensive, domain-focused assessment in both clinical practice and research.
