The EuroQol Group first met in 1987 in order to develop a standardized non-disease specific instrument to describe and value health-related quality of life. A process based on shared development, local experimentation and discussion resulted in EQ-5D, a measure that generates a single index value for health status for use in health care evaluation. EQ-5D is a standardized instrument developed as a measure of health-related quality of life that can be used in a wide…
