“…The smaller advantage of the 5 L exhibited in our study could also be partly due to the fact that previous studies used a crosswalk algorithm to calculate the 5 L index score. Index scores based on crosswalk are less precise or reliable than scores based on value sets which are estimated using preferences directly elicited from representative general population samples [30].…”

Background: This study was conducted to compare the validity and discriminative power of both the EQ-5D-3 L and EQ-5D-5 L in an elderly Chinese population with multiple chronic and acute conditions. Methods: A total of 648 retired people from China (mean ± standard deviation: 73.3 ± 6.4 years; male: 55.7%) were recruited and randomized to complete the 3 L or 5 L questionnaire. The 3 L and 5 L were compared in terms of distribution properties, ceiling effects, informativity, validity and discriminatory performance. Convergent validity between the 3 L and 5 L was tested by spearman's rank-order correlation. Discriminatory power was conducted by relative efficiency as assessed by the F statistics. Results: Most participants answered to "no problems" on both versions of EQ-5D. The 5 L trended towards a slightly lower ceiling compared with the 3 L. The Shannon index improved with the 5 L while the Shannon's Evenness index tended to be similar. Convergent validity was confirmed by the moderate to strong correlation for both 3 L and 5 L. Relative efficiency suggested that 5 L had a higher absolute discriminatory power than the 3 L version in terms of the presence conditions, especially for osteoporosis and metabolic syndrome. Conclusions: Both the 3 L and 5 L are demonstrated to be valid based HRQoL instruments in Chinese elderly population. The 5 L system may be preferable to the 3 L, as it demonstrated superior performance with respect to lower ceiling effect and better discriminatory power. Further research is needed to examine the responsiveness of the two EQ-5D instruments in this population.

“…The use of an interim value set, based on a cross-walk methodology, to estimate the EQ-5D-5L index, was a major limitation of the study [28]. It would be desirable to use a directly measured value set; however, work on the EuroQol Group’s new official valuation protocol is still in progress [31, 32].…”

“…The EQ-5D health states may be converted into a single summary index by applying a formula that attaches values to each of the levels in each dimension. In order to calculate the EQ-5D-5L’s index values, we used an interim EQ-5D-5L value set for Poland [28], based on a crosswalk methodology that was developed by the EuroQol Group [29] and applied to the existing Polish EQ-5D-3L’s time trade-off value set [30]. …”

IntroductionThe new, five-level version of the EQ-5D (EQ-5D-5L) questionnaire has better psychometric properties than the standard three-level version (EQ-5D-3L), including a reduced ceiling effect. Currently, there are few existing population norms for the EQ-5D-5L. The aims of this study were to provide population norms for the EQ-5D-5L in Poland, based on a representative sample of adults, and to compare those with norms from other countries.Material and methodsMembers of the general public, selected through multistage stratified sampling, filled in paper-and-pencil EQ-5D-5L questionnaires in the presence of an interviewer. EQ-5D-5L index values were estimated using an interim value set, based on a crosswalk methodology. Descriptive statistics were calculated for the EQ-5D-5L index. The distribution of answers was obtained for the descriptive part of the EQ-5D-5L.ResultsThe sample was representative of the Polish population in terms of age, gender, geographical region, education, and socio-professional group. Population norms were developed based on 3963 questionnaires with no missing data. At least one slight, moderate, severe, and extreme health limitation was reported by 61.5%, 31.1%, 12.4%, and 1.6% of the respondents, respectively. Polish society is characterized by poorer health, as compared to its direct neighbor, Germany, especially with regard to the individuals’ perception of pain, as well as anxiety and depression.ConclusionsPolish population norms for the EQ-5D-5L should encourage clinicians, economists, and policymakers in Poland to use this questionnaire on a broader scale.

“…Overall 27 (31% of 86 studies) did not specify which tariff was used to calculate the EQ-5D index score. Poland and Slovenia are the only CEE countries with their own national tariff[120,183,184]. In Hungary, Bulgaria and Romania, studies were mainly based only the UK value set, in Austria and the Czech Republic on the UK or European, and in Poland and Slovenia on the UK or available national value set.Total number of EQ-5D index scores reported using the EQ-5D from CEE was 542 and the majority was originated from Hungary (n=248; 46%), Poland (n=104; 19%) and the Czech Republic (n=93; 17%).…”

Increasing use of EQ-5D is observed throughout CEE. The spread of health technology assessment activities in countries seems to be reflected in the number of EQ-5D studies. However, improvement in informed use and methodological quality of reporting is needed. In jurisdictions where no national value set is available, in order to ensure comparability we recommend to apply the most frequently used UK tariff. Regional collaboration between CEE countries should be strengthened.
