Resumo: This study analyzes how different health dimensions defined by the EQ-5D-3L instrument affect average individual preferences for health states. This analysis is an important benchmark for the incorporation of health technologies as it takes into consideration Brazilian population preferences in health resource allocation decisions. The EQ-5D instrument defines health in terms of five dimensions (mobility, daily activities, self-care activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression) each divided into three levels of severity. Data came from a valuation study with 3,362 literate individuals aged between 18 and 64 living in urban areas of Minas Gerais State, Brazil. The main results reveal that health utility decreases as the level of severity increases. With regard to health issues, mobility stands out as the most important EQ-5D dimension. Independently of severity levels of the other EQ-5D-3L dimensions, the highest decrements in utilities are associated with severe mobility problems.

Este análisis es un punto de referencia para la incorporación de tecnologías en salud, ya que hace posible considerar las preferencias de la población brasileña en las decisiones sobre la asignación de recursos de salud. El EQ-5D define la salud en cinco dimensiones (movilidad, actividades habituales, cuidado personal, dolor/malestar y ansiedad/depresión) con tres niveles de severidad. Los datos provienen de una investigación inédita en Brasil, que entrevistó a 3.362 personas entre 18 y 64 años y que viven en zonas urbanas de Minas Gerais. Los principales resultados muestran que la disminución en la utilidad de los individuos aumenta con el nivel de severidad. Con respecto a las dimensiones de salud, la movilidad se destaca como la más importante. Independientemente de los niveles de severidad de las otras dimensiones, los mayores decrementos en la utilidad están asociados con graves problemas de movilidad.Este estudo analisa como as diferentes dimensões dos estados de saúde definidas pelo instrumento EQ-5D-3L afetam, em média, as preferências dos indivíduos por estados de saúde. Essa análise é importante para balizar a incorporação de tecnologias em saúde uma vez que viabiliza considerar as preferências da população brasileira na decisão de alocação de recursos em saúde. O EQ-5D-3L define a saúde em cinco dimensões (mobilidade, atividades habituais, auto-cuidado, dor/desconforto e ansiedade/depressão) contendo três níveis de severidade. Os dados são provenientes de uma pesquisa inédita no Brasil que entrevistou 3.362 pessoas com idade entre 18 e 64 anos vivendo em áreas urbanas de Minas Gerais. Os principais resultados mostram que o decremento na utilidade dos indivíduos é crescente com o nível de severidade. No que se refere às dimensões de saúde, a mobilidade se destaca como a mais importante. Independentemente dos níveis de severidade das demais dimensões do EQ-5D, os maiores decrementos nas utilidades estão associados ao problema de mobilidade severa.Reports in Public HealthCadernos de Saúde Pública2013-11-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontext/htmlapplication/pdfhttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/5160Reports in Public Health; Vol. 29 No. 13 (2013): Supplement 1Cadernos de Saúde Pública; v. 29 n. 13 (2013): Suplemento 11678-44640102-311Xreponame:Cadernos de Saúde Públicainstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZenghttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/5160/10569https://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/5160/10570Andrade, Monica ViegasNoronha, Kenya Valeria Micaela de SouzaMaia, Ana CarolinaKind, Paulinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2024-03-06T15:28:34Zoai:ojs.teste-cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br:article/5160Revistahttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csphttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/oaicadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br||cadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br1678-44640102-311Xopendoar:2024-03-06T13:05:57.099679Cadernos de Saúde Pública - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)true
