NICE Decision Support Unit
The Decision Support Unit (DSU) is run by the University of Sheffield, providing advice and support to the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE).
Switching from from EQ-5D-3L to EQ-5D-5L
We've produced a series of outputs (including reports, papers and updates to Technical Support Documents and commands) to aid the transition from EQ-5D-3L to EQ-5D-5L.
Over the past 18 months, researchers working for the NICE DSU and the NIHR Policy Research Unit for economic evaluation (EEPRU) have been working on several projects motivated by the move from EQ-5D-3L to the EQ-5D-5L. There are lots of different pieces of related information we are making available and it's a little complicated to understand how it all fits together.
We have put all the related work onto a handy one-pager, with links to the various reports, papers and project pages including updated software commands.
