Population-level norm values by EQ-5D-3L in Hungary - a comparison of survey results from 2022 with those from 2000.

Purpose

Although population norms of the EQ-5D-3L instrument had been available in Hungary since 2000, their evaluation was based on a United Kingdom (UK) value set.

Methods

The EQ-5D-3L dimensional responses were analyzed by age and sex and compared with the survey from 2000, by estimating population frequencies with their 95% confidence intervals; index values were evaluated by both value sets.

Results

Altogether, 11,910 respondents, aged 12 or more (578 between 12 and 17), c
