The EQ-5D is a reliable and valid tool for assessing quality of life in Chinese patients with heart failure, though caution is needed when interpreting utility values in those with atrial fibrillation or coronary artery disease.
Absolute Event Rate: 0% vs 0%
The EQ-5D appears to demonstrate acceptable reliability and validity in Chinese patients with heart failure, compared with atrial fibrillation and coronary artery disease. Disease-specific symptoms and comorbidities may influence the interpretability and accuracy of utility values measured by EQ-5D in patients with atrial fibrillation and coronary artery disease.
