- Abstract: The transformation of traditional biomedical model into the bio-psycho-social medical model means that the purpose of clinical diagnosis and treatment not only focuses on the disease itself， but also emphasizes the quality of life and happiness index of patients. Since chronic hepatitis B （CHB） is infectious and has high rates of recurrence and progression， patients have to bear many pressures in terms of physiology， psychology， economy， and society， which seriously affects their quality of life. Therefore， it is very important to perform health-related quality of life （HRQoL） assessments for patients with CHB. This article reviews the clinical significance and measurement tools of HRQoL assessments in patients with CHB and summarizes the influencing factors for HRQoL in CHB patients and the measures to improve their HRQoL. This article will provide theoretical support for dynamic monitoring of HRQoL in CHB patients and practical guidance for optimizing the clinical diagnosis and treatment regimens for CHB and improving the quality of life of patients.
