A comparison of United Kingdom and Spanish general population time trade-off values for EQ-5D health states.
TLDR
There were statistically significant differences in values for 34.9% of health states rated directly, and some preference reversals between countries, and further analysis is required to determine how these differences affect cost-effectiveness and cost-utility analyses.Abstract:
Few studies have compared preference values for health states obtained in different countries. The present study compared Spanish and United Kingdom (UK) time trade-off values for EuroQol-5D health...read more

US valuation of the EQ-5D health states: development and testing of the D1 valuation model.
TL;DR: The D1 model best predicts the values for observed health states using the time trade-off method, and represents a significant enhancement of the EQ-5D's utility for health status assessment and economic analysis in the US.
BookDOI
The Measurement and Valuation of Health Status Using EQ-5D: A European Perspective
TL;DR: This book discusses the construction of the EQ-net VAS and TTO databases, Guidelines for analysing and reporting EQ-5D outcomes, and a comparison of EQ- 5D time trade-off values obtained in Germany, The United Kingdom and Spain.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comparison of the EQ-5D and SF-6D across seven patient groups.
TL;DR: A comparison of the EQ-5D and the SF-6D across seven patient/population groups (chronic obstructive airways disease, osteoarthritis, irritable bowel syndrome, lower back pain, leg ulcers, post menopausal women and elderly) shows discrepancies arise from differences in their health state classifications and the methods used to value them.

The Dutch tariff: results and arguments for an effective design for national EQ-5D valuation studies
TL;DR: A simulation study using the dataset of the original UK valuation study, to determine in a simulation study, the number of health states and respondents needed to estimate a reliable tariff for a Dutch EQ-5D tariff.

EuroQol: the current state of play.
TL;DR: The EuroQol instrument is intended to complement other forms of quality of life measures, and it has been purposefully developed to generate a cardinal index of health, thus giving it considerable potential for use in economic evaluation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cross-cultural adaptation of health-related quality of life measures: literature review and proposed guidelines.
TL;DR: These guidelines include recommendations for obtaining semantic, idiomatic, experiential and conceptual equivalence in translation by using back-translation techniques and committee review, pre-testing techniques and re-examining the weight of scores.

A short portable mental status questionnaire for the assessment of organic brain deficit in elderly patients
TL;DR: A 10‐item Short Portable Mental Status Questionnaire (SPMSQ), easily administered by any clinician in the office or in a hospital, has been designed, tested, standardized and validated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling Valuations for EuroQol Health States
TL;DR: The model presented in this article appears to predict the values of the states for which there are direct observations and, thus, can be used to interpolate values for theStates for which no direct observations exist.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measuring health-related quality of life.
TL;DR: Patients, clinicians, and health care administrators are all keenly interested in the effects of medical interventions on HRQL, because increasing efforts exist to incorporate HRQLs as measures of the quality of care and of clinical effectiveness, and because payers are beginning to use HRQL information in reimbursement decisions.
