Liver examination survey questionnaire

All those invited to the Healthy Finland Liver Disease Follow-up Study are invited to complete a short survey questionnaire.

How can I respond to the survey questionnaire?

You can respond either online or using the paper form. We primarily ask you to fill out the survey online, but if you wish, you can also receive the survey in paper form when attending the examination.

How long does it take to fill out the survey questionnaire and what are the questions about?

It takes around 5 to 10 minutes to fill out the questionnaire. None of the questions are difficult. They concern things that affect your liver function, such as your lifestyle and your parents' illnesses. If needed, you can take breaks while filling out the survey.
