The authors provide practical, clear and comprehensive guidance in five concise chapters. Following an overview of the EQ-5D and its analysis, we describe how the questionnaire data - the EQ-5D profile and EQ VAS - can be analysed in different ways to generate important insights into peoples health. We then show how the value sets which accompany the EQ-5D can be applied to summarise patients data. The final chapter deals with advanced topics, including the use of Minimally Important Differences, case-mix adjustment, mapping, and more. This book is essential for those new to analyzing EQ-5D data and will be also be valuable for those with more experience. The methods can be applied to any EQ-5D instrument (for example, the three- and five-level and Youth versions) and many of the methods described will be equally relevant to other Patient Reported Outcomes instruments.}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-47622-9, https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-47}, recid = {940536}, pages = {1 online resource}, address = {Cham, Switzerland :}, year = {2020}, }
