Estimating the SF-6D Value Set for a Population-Based Sample of Brazilians

Abstract: The results provide the first population-based value set for Brazil for SF-6D health states, making it possible to generate quality-adjusted life years for cost-utility studies using regional data. Besides, utility weights derived using the preferences of a sample from a southern Brazilian population can be derived from existing SF-36 data sets.

“…There are several health-state classification systems that can be used in the construction of QALYs as for example Health Utility Index (HUI), Short-Form 36 Items (SF-36), Short-Form 6 Dimension (SF-6D) and EuroQol-5 Dimensions (EQ-5D). The difference among them is the number and type of health dimensions and levels of severity that each classification system takes into account 26,27,28,29,30,31,32 . EQ-5D is probably the most widely used generic measure of health status in measuring benefits for economic evaluation.…”

“…44 In Brazil, only recently EQ-5D and SF-6D were cross-cultural adapted and validated, as well as societal preferences weights were estimated. [45][46][47][48] The difficulty to derive a valid QALY measure is even greater for pediatric populations, because a valid and reliable preference-based measure of utility for child health states does not exist, and the novel approaches are still under methodological investigation. 41,49 HEEs of vaccination usually incorporate only health benefits (reduction in morbidity and mortality) and averted medical spending, undervaluing the vaccines.…”

“…O Standard Gamble e Time-Trade-off não demandam um processo formal de tradução e validação, podendo ser aplicados diretamente nos pacientes para avaliar valores para estados de saúde. Por outro lado, os instrumentos compostos por questionários como EQ-5D e SF-6D necessitam ser traduzidos e adaptados culturalmente; tal processo já foi realizado no Brasil recentemente (Cruz et al, 2011, Santos et al, 2015. Portanto, para análises econômicas realizadas no Brasil, dados primários em qualidade de vida poderão ser coletados por meio dos instrumentos Standard Gamble, Time Trade-Off, SF-6D ou EQ-5D.…”
