Evaluating health utility score through direct and indirect methods in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis. Int Forum Allergy Rhinol 2024; 14:1426-1434. [PMID: 38555579 DOI: 10.1002/alr.23349] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2024] [Revised: 03/11/2024] [Accepted: 03/15/2024] [Indexed: 04/02/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION EuroQol-5-dimensions-5-levels (EQ-5D-5L), visual analog scale (VAS), time trade-off (TTO), and standard gamble (SG) are used for the assessment of Health Utility Scores (HUS) of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). This study aimed to determine the overall HUS of CRS, the factors which influence the HUS, and the preferable method. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted. Patients with primary CRS were recruited. Clinical and socioeconomic data together with HUS were assessed. Four HUS scores determined from the four different methods were compared. RESULTS A total of 335 patients were enrolled. The overall HUS, as measured by EQ-5D-5L, VAS, TTO, and SG, was 0.88 ± 0.14, 0.79 ± 0.17, 0.89 ± 0.15, and 0.86 ± 0.16, respectively. The multivariable linear regression revealed that each increasing 22-item sinonasal outcome test (SNOT-22) score predicted a reduction of 0.002 to 0.003 in HUS (all methods, p < 0.01). Patients who scheduled for endoscopic sinus surgery had 0.06 to 0.11 HUS lower than other groups in EQ-5D-5L and VAS (all p < 0.05). Higher endoscopy score, age, presence of comorbid airway diseases, and lower education correlated with lower HUS (p < 0.05). Given the HUS results and regression models, the EQ-5D-5L is likely the preferable choice. CONCLUSION The overall HUS of CRS was approximately 0.79-0.89. High SNOT-22 score and those who failed medications, presence of comorbid AR/asthma, increased age, high endoscopy score, and low education negatively impacted HUS. Our data suggest that EQ-5D-5L is a preferable method for measuring HUS in patients with CRS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) can increase the health utility score (HUS) of patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) who require the surgery. HUS varies depending on the geographical or living environment. HUS in CRS has never been evaluated in Thailand. The objective of this study was to evaluate the HUS of Thai patients with CRS before and after ESS through multiple approaches. METHODS Thai patients (age ≥ 18) with CRS scheduled for ESS were enrolled in this prospective study. The preoperative (baseline) demographics, 22-items sinonasal outcome test, endoscopic score, and CT score were recorded. The HUS was evaluated using four methods: the EuroQoL-5 Dimension-5 level (EQ-5D-5L), Visual Analog Scale (VAS), Standard gamble (SG), and Time trade-off (TTO); at baseline, three months and six months post-operation. RESULTS Data from 60 patients were analyzed. The mean baseline HUS scores by EQ-5D-5L, VAS, SG, and TTO were 0.75, 0.65, 0.79, and 0.85, respectively. The postoperative HUS significantly improved to 0.96, 0.91, 0.96, 0.97 at three months, and 0.97, 0.92, 0.97, and 0.98 at six months, respectively. ESS raised the HUS by 0.12-0.27 points. Among the four methods, VAS showed the lowest HUS at all time points. CONCLUSION The preoperative HUS in Thai patients with CRS generally increased to near-perfect values after the ESS. The increase in HUS reflecting the improved general quality of life, was demonstrated at three and up to six months after ESS. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 4 Laryngoscope, 134:2070-2076, 2024.

[PMID: 34268287 PMCID: PMC8275935 DOI: 10.3389/fpubh.2021.675523] [Citation(s) in RCA: 69] [Impact Index Per Article: 23.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2021] [Accepted: 05/24/2021] [Indexed: 01/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: The EQ-5D-5L is a generic preference-based questionnaire developed by the EuroQol Group to measure health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in 2005. Since its development, it has been increasingly applied in populations with various diseases and has been found to have good reliability and sensitivity. This study aimed to summarize the health utility elicited from EQ-5D-5L for patients with different diseases in cross-sectional studies worldwide. Methods: Web of Science, MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library were searched from January 1, 2012, to October 31, 2019. Cross-sectional studies reporting utility values measured with the EQ-5D-5L in patients with any specific disease were eligible. The language was limited to English. Reference lists of the retrieved studies were manually searched to identify more studies that met the inclusion criteria. Methodological quality was assessed with the Agency for Health Research and Quality (AHRQ) checklist. In addition, meta-analyses were performed for utility values of any specific disease reported in three or more studies. Results: In total, 9,400 records were identified, and 98 studies met the inclusion criteria. In the included studies, 50 different diseases and 98,085 patients were analyzed. Thirty-five studies involving seven different diseases were included in meta-analyses. The health utility ranged from 0.31 to 0.99 for diabetes mellitus [meta-analysis random-effect model (REM): 0.83, (95% CI = 0.77–0.90); fixed-effect model (FEM): 0.93 (95% CI = 0.93–0.93)]; from 0.62 to 0.90 for neoplasms [REM: 0.75 (95% CI = 0.68–0.82); FEM: 0.80 (95% CI = 0.78–0.81)]; from 0.56 to 0.85 for cardiovascular disease [REM: 0.77 (95% CI = 0.75–0.79); FEM: 0.76 (95% CI = 0.75–0.76)]; from 0.31 to 0.78 for multiple sclerosis [REM: 0.56 (95% CI = 0.47–0.66); FEM: 0.67 (95% CI = 0.66–0.68)]; from 0.68 to 0.79 for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [REM: 0.75 (95% CI = 0.71–0.80); FEM: 0.76 (95% CI = 0.75–0.77)] from 0.65 to 0.90 for HIV infection [REM: 0.84 (95% CI = 0.80–0.88); FEM: 0.81 (95% CI = 0.80–0.82)]; from 0.37 to 0.89 for chronic kidney disease [REM: 0.70 (95% CI = 0.48–0.92; FEM: 0.76 (95% CI = 0.74–0.78)]. Conclusions: EQ-5D-5L is one of the most widely used preference-based measures of HRQoL in patients with different diseases worldwide. The variation of utility values for the same disease was influenced by the characteristics of patients, the living environment, and the EQ-5D-5L value set.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD) is optimally managed by endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) followed by aspirin therapy after desensitization (ATAD). Most AERD quality of life (QOL) studies use the 22-item Sinonasal Outcomes Test (SNOT-22), which focuses predominantly on sinonasal outcomes. OBJECTIVE This study seeks to assess QOL outcomes in AERD patients after ESS and ATAD via the 12-item Short Form Survey (SF-12), a well-validated QOL measure for general health status of chronic conditions. METHODS Retrospective review of 112 AERD patients who underwent ESS followed by ATAD at our institution between 2016 and 2019. SF-12 was collected preoperatively, postoperatively/pre-AD, and serially post-AD (1-3, 4-6, 7-12, and >12 months). Optum® PRO CoRE software was used to compare data to national norms. ANOVA was performed comparing physical component summary (PCS), mental component summary (MCS) and eight health domains (physical functioning, role physical, general health, bodily pain, vitality, social functioning, role emotional, and mental health). RESULTS AERD patients showed improvement in PCS scores across all timepoints after ESS and ATAD (p = 0.004). When stratified by gender, women demonstrated an improvement in PCS scores (p = 0.004). Within the domains, there were significant improvements in social functioning (SF), role physical (RP), and bodily pain (BP) at all timepoints (SF: p = 0.006; RP: p = 0.005; BP: p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS AERD patients undergoing ESS and ATAD show improvement in physical QOL and 3 of the 8 health domains as measured by the SF-12. Future studies can use the SF-12 to study the impact of AERD treatment versus other chronic diseases and health demographics.

Abstract
PURPOSE Although the EQ-5D has a long history of use in a wide range of populations, the newer five-level version (EQ-5D-5L) has not yet had such extensive experience. This systematic review summarizes the available published scientific evidence on the psychometric properties of the EQ-5D-5L. METHODS Pre-determined key words and exclusion criteria were used to systematically search publications from 2011 to 2019. Information on study characteristics and psychometric properties were extracted: specifically, EQ-5D-5L distribution (including ceiling and floor), missing values, reliability (test-retest), validity (convergent, known-groups, discriminate) and responsiveness (distribution, anchor-based). EQ-5D-5L index value means, ceiling and correlation coefficients (convergent validity) were pooled across the studies using random-effects models. RESULTS Of the 889 identified publications, 99 were included for review, representing 32 countries. Musculoskeletal/orthopedic problems and cancer (n = 8 each) were most often studied. Most papers found missing values (17 of 17 papers) and floor effects (43 of 48 papers) to be unproblematic. While the index was found to be reliable (9 of 9 papers), individual dimensions exhibited instability over time. Index values and dimensions demonstrated moderate to strong correlations with global health measures, other multi-attribute utility instruments, physical/functional health, pain, activities of daily living, and clinical/biological measures. The instrument was not correlated with life satisfaction and cognition/communication measures. Responsiveness was addressed by 15 studies, finding moderate effect sizes when confined to studied subgroups with improvements in health. CONCLUSIONS The EQ-5D-5L exhibits excellent psychometric properties across a broad range of populations, conditions and settings. Rigorous exploration of its responsiveness is needed.
