Time for our monthly selection of recent publications on EuroQol instruments. Check out these 8 papers👇 👀 Another EQ-5D-5L value set in an African country - the first Ghanaian EQ-5D-5L value set will play a vital role in economic evaluations. 📘 'An EQ-5D-5L Value Set for Ghana Using an Adapted EuroQol Valuation Technology Protocol.' Addo et al. 🔗 https://bit.ly/3YdQ6z0 This study assessed the EQ-HWB's appropriateness for quality-of-life assessments in residential aged care from the perspectives of family members and care staff, highlighting key challenges that require further consideration. 📘 'Appropriateness of the EQ-HWB for Use in Residential Aged Care: A Proxy Perspective.' Engel et al. 🔗 https://bit.ly/4eQonKi This meta-analysis confirms the EQ-5D's validity and responsiveness in asthma, while highlighting areas for improvement compared to asthma-specific quality-of-life measures. 📘 'Validity and Responsiveness of EQ-5D in Asthma: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.' Chua et al. 🔗 https://bit.ly/3Byykhc This study revealed that while demographic composition in age and gender affect health state preferences, their overall impact on the validity and obsolescence of EQ-5D-3L value sets remains negligible and was robust after accounting for the impact of ethnicity trends. 📘 'The impact of demographic change on value set validity and obsolescence.' Jonker MF. 🔗 https://bit.ly/3zSeEEy Scott et al. demonstrate that the EQ-5D-5L's Anxiety/Depression dimension effectively captures anxiety (GAD-7) and depression symptoms (PHQ-9). However, the performance varies by age. 📘 'The performance relationship between the EQ-5D-5L composite "Anxiety/Depression" dimension and anxiety and depression symptoms in a large, general population sample.' Scott et al. 🔗 https://bit.ly/4eU4Zft This study highlights the significantly reduced quality of life of caregivers of sickle cell disease patients, with 70% reporting mental health challenges. 📘 'Economic burden and quality of life of caregivers of patients with sickle cell disease in the United Kingdom and France: a cross-sectional study.' Besser et al. 🔗 https://bit.ly/4eQHBj1 Lee-Yin and colleagues cross-culturally adapted the EQ-5D-Y for children in Singapore, confirming its relevance and comprehensiveness while suggesting potential improvements such as adding bolt-on items related to social relationships and appetite. 📘 'Cross-cultural adaptation and content validation of the Singapore English version of EQ-5D-Y: a qualitative study.' Lee-Yin et al. 🔗 https://bit.ly/4dAdhIl This study compared the measurement properties of three indirect and one direct utility assessment methods in patients with chronic skin diseases, revealing that the EQ-5D-5L better discriminated between known groups of general and physical health than other instruments. 📘 'Comparing EQ-5D-5L, PROPr, SF-6D and TTO utilities in patients with chronic skin diseases.' Szabó et al. 🔗 https://bit.ly/4gTO3Ym

EQ-5D, helping the world make better health decisions
Over ons
EuroQol’s vision is to improve decisions about health and health care throughout the world by developing, promoting and supporting the use of instruments (with the widest possible applicability) for the measurement and valuation of health. EuroQol is a member driven, not-for-profit, organisation that comprises an association and a research foundation. The scientific expertise behind EuroQol is the EuroQol Group Association, an international network of multidisciplinary researchers dedicated to the measurement of health. The Group Association is a global network of more than 100 members from Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, Oceania and South America. The EuroQol Group Association has been holding annual scientific meetings since its inception in 1987. The EuroQol Research Foundation: supports, initiates and performs scientific research and development of instruments that describe and value health. The Foundation manages intellectual property rights that include, but are not limited to, EQ-5D. Furthermore, the Foundation funds or co-funds research in the fields related to our Vision and Mission. In the past financial year (2021-22), the EuroQol Research Foundation funded or co-funded more than 110 projects, for a total value of 5,451.793 euros. EuroQol is responsible for the development of the EQ-5D, a standardised measure of health status that provides a simple, generic measure of health for clinical and economic appraisal. The EQ-5D has evolved over the last 30 years into a family of health status instruments: EQ-5D-3L and EQ-5D-5L, and EQ-5D-Y. EQ-5D instruments have been widely used in clinical trials, population studies and in real-world clinical settings. The EQ-5D is used worldwide and has been translated into numerous languages through a closely monitored translation process. EuroQol manages the distribution and licensing of the EQ-5D. After registration, EQ-5D is free of charge for non-commercial use (academic, healthcare, government) of any scale.
