SMAT-B, SCOAAI, and L-PaSC were strongly recommended as Grade A instruments. SAC and the Breast Cancer-Related Lymphoedema Self-Care Scale were not recommended as Grade C instruments. Most of the 26 instruments were graded B because their properties were promising but validation evidence was incomplete or methodologically limited. SCOAAI is recommended for patients treated with oral anticancer agents. SMAT-B is recommended for women with breast cancer receiving adjuvant therapy. L-PaSC is recommended for patients undergoing chemotherapy, but the Grade A recommendation applies only to the validated language version.
