Chinese Time Trade-Off Values for EQ-5D Health States

Abstract

The study successfully developed Chinese utility values for EQ-5D-3L health states using the time trade-off method. It is the first attempt ever to develop a standardized instrument for quantifying quality-adjusted life-years in China.

Do Chinese have similar health-state preferences? A comparison of mainland Chinese and Singaporean Chinese

“…Third, the mean values of the mild health states (i.e. 11221, 12112, and 21111) were lower than those of similar EQ-5D-3L states reported in previous studies OR odds ratio, CI confidence interval, N number of valuation tasks in which the health state was considered worse than death a Reference group is mainland Chinese b Random effect multivariate logistic regression model, in which age group, gender, TTO block, and self-reported health problems in EQ-5D-5L health domains are adjusted [30,31], suggesting that the validity of the lead-time TTO method we used might be suboptimal. Indeed, lead-time TTO was found to lead to lower positive values than conventional TTO [32].…”

Associations with health-related quality of life after intracerebral haemorrhage: pooled analysis of INTERACT studies

“…Second, we applied Chinese norms to the Chinese study population14 15 and UK preference weights to the other participants and repeated the logistic regression analysis. Third, we forced all baseline variables into our analysis model.…”

“…Responses to the dimensions collectively form a multiattribute health state that can be assigned a utility score (ie, EQ-5D index score) to indicate the value of the health state to Chinese general population. 26 The index score ranges from −0.149 (worst health state) to 1.0 (full health), with a higher score indicating higher utility or better HRQOL. 26 The second part is a visual analog scale (VAS), which is a vertical 0 to 100 point rating scale, for respondents to rate their overall health.…”

“…26 The index score ranges from −0.149 (worst health state) to 1.0 (full health), with a higher score indicating higher utility or better HRQOL. 26 The second part is a visual analog scale (VAS), which is a vertical 0 to 100 point rating scale, for respondents to rate their overall health. The best and worst health states carry a score of 100 and 0, respectively.…”
