   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Background: EQ-5D data on patients’ health-related quality of life (HRQoL) are collected in roughly 40% of about 100 National Quality Registers (NQRs) in Sweden. The aim of the thesis was to increase knowledge on the use of the EQ-5D-3L in assessing HRQoL of patients in different NQRs and to compare different value sets used to describe HRQoL. LÄS MER
