Estimating health state utility values for comorbid health conditions using SF-6D data.
INTRODUCTION When health state utility values for comorbid health conditions are not available, data from cohorts with single conditions are used to estimate scores. The methods used can produce very different results and there is currently no consensus on which is the most appropriate approach. OBJECTIVE The objective of the current study was to compare the accuracy of five different methods...
متن کاملWhat is the relationship between the minimally important difference and health state utility values? The case of the SF-6D
BACKGROUND The SF-6D is a new single summary preference-based measure of health derived from the SF-36. Empirical work is required to determine what is the smallest change in SF-6D scores that can be regarded as important and meaningful for health professionals, patients and other stakeholders. OBJECTIVES To use anchor-based methods to determine the minimally important difference (MID) for th...

متن کاملMapping CushingQoL Scores onto SF-6D Utility Values in Patients with Cushing’s Syndrome
OBJECTIVES To construct a prediction model of preference-adjusted health status (SF-6D) for Cushing's syndrome using a disease-specific health-related quality of life (HRQOL) measure (CushingQoL). METHODS Data were obtained from the original multicenter, multinational study to validate the CushingQoL questionnaire. HRQOL was measured using the CushingQoL and the SF-36 questionnaires. SF-6D sc...
متن کاملExploring the validity of estimating EQ-5D and SF-6D utility values from the health assessment questionnaire in patients with inflammatory arthritis
BACKGROUND Utility scores are used to estimate Quality Adjusted Life Years (QALYs), applied in determining the cost-effectiveness of health care interventions. In studies where no preference based measures are collected, indirect methods have been developed to estimate utilities from clinical instruments. The aim of this study was to evaluate a published method of estimating the EuroQol-5D (EQ-...
