Survey in Europe – Measuring Quality of Life
28 May. 2015London School of Economics Survey about how quality of life is measured and reported in Health Technology Assessments (HTA)
28/05/15
Another survey for patients and carers to take part.
HTA organisations, such as for example NICE (National Institute for Clinical Health and Excellence) mostly use a questionnaire called the EQ-5D to measure the impact of an illness. From our experience with MDS patients, we have found this EQ-5D questionnaire inadequate to reflect the various issues faced by our group of patients. This survey is an opportunity to test and evaluate this widely used questionnaire.
