AnnotationData is presented from the Department of Health (DoH) funded Measurement and Valuation of Health survey, a nationally representative interview survey of some 4,000 men and women, conducted by the Centre for Health Economics (CHE) in 1993. Among other things, the survey collected information on health status using the EuroQoL (EQ-5D) descriptive system. EQ-5D defines health in terms of five dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain or discomfort, and anxiety or depression. Each dimension is subdivided into three levels corresponding to whether a respondent has no problems, moderate problems, or extreme problems. Data is presented as a series of tables of age/sex population norms for the EQ-5D, for both self-rated health care and weighted health state index. (RH).
