EQ 5D PRO

This applies to the original three-level version, the EQ-5D-3L the five-level version, EQ-5D-5L the child-friendly version, EQ-5D-Y - and arguably, any PRO instrument.ДЎ.

So: for anyone collecting or reporting EQ-5D data, here are my recommendations for what to do with EQ-5D data. The bottom line is вЂ“ if you collect these data from your patients, you should be committed to making sure you learn as much as possible from what they tell you. Because itвЂ™s a generic PRO, and because it is accompanied by вЂvalue setsвЂ™ (a.k.a вЂutilitiesвЂ™) used in the calculation of QALYs (quality adjusted life years), EQ-5D has become the cornerstone of health technology appraisal (HTA), affecting important decisions about access to new medicines.Д«ut despite all that, EQ-5D data are often under-reported, and inadequately analysed. For a couple of decades now, it has been used in clinical trials, observational studies, population health surveys and вЂ“ more recently вЂ“ in routine data collection in health care systems. Written by Professor Nancy Devlin, Director of Research at OHE and member of the EuroQol GroupД®Q-5D is the most widely used measure of patient reported outcomes (PRO) around the world.
