Description: EQ-5D is a popular health related quality of life
        instrument used in the clinical and economic evaluation of
        health care. Developed by the EuroQol group
        <https://euroqol.org/>, the instrument consists of two
        components: health state description and evaluation. For the
        description component a subject self-rates their health in
        terms of five dimensions; mobility, self-care, usual
        activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression using
        either a three-level (EQ-5D-3L,
        <https://euroqol.org/information-and-support/euroqol-instruments/eq-5d-3l/>)
        or a five-level (EQ-5D-5L,
        <https://euroqol.org/information-and-support/euroqol-instruments/eq-5d-5l/>)
        scale. Frequently the scores on these five dimensions are
        converted to a single utility index using country specific
        value sets, which can be used in the clinical and economic
        evaluation of health care as well as in population health
        surveys. The eq5d package provides methods to calculate index
        scores from a subject's dimension scores. 33 TTO and 11 VAS
        EQ-5D-3L value sets including those for countries in Szende et
        al (2007) <doi:10.1007/1-4020-5511-0> and Szende et al (2014)
        <doi:10.1007/978-94-007-7596-1>, 50 EQ-5D-5L EQ-VT value sets,
        the EQ-5D-5L crosswalk value sets developed by van Hout et al.
        (2012) <doi:10.1016/j.jval.2012.02.008>, the crosswalk value
        sets for Bermuda, Jordan and Russia and the van Hout (2021)
        reverse crosswalk value sets. 13 EQ-5D-Y-3L value sets are also
        included as are the NICE 'DSU' age-sex based EQ-5D-3L to
        EQ-5D-5L and EQ-5D-5L to EQ-5D-3L mappings. Methods are also
        included for the analysis of EQ-5D profiles, including those
        from the book "Methods for Analyzing and Reporting EQ-5D data"
        by Devlin et al. (2020) <doi:10.1007/978-3-030-47622-9>.
        Additionally a shiny web tool is included to enable the
        calculation, visualisation and automated statistical analysis
        of EQ-5D data via a web browser using EQ-5D dimension scores
        stored in CSV or Excel files.
