PG - 1074969 LID - 10.3389/fcvm.2023.1074969 [doi] LID - 1074969 AB - BACKGROUND: Although the five-level version of the EuroQol five-dimensional questionnaire (EQ-5D-5L) has been validated in various diseases, no empirical study has evaluated the responsiveness and minimal clinically important difference (MCID) of the instrument in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD), which limits the interpretability and clinical application of EQ-5D-5L. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the responsiveness and MCID of EQ-5D-5L in patients with CHD who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and identify the relationship between the MCID values and minimal detectable change (MDC). METHODS: Patients with CHD were recruited for this longitudinal study at the Tianjin Medical University's General Hospital in China. At baseline and 4 weeks after PCI, participants completed the EQ-5D-5L and Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ). Additionally, we used the effect size (ES) to assess the responsiveness of EQ-5D-5L. The anchor-based, distribution-based, and instrument-based methods were used in this study to calculate the MCID estimates. The MCID estimates to MDC ratios were computed at the individual and group levels at a 95% CI. RESULTS: Seventy-five patients with CHD completed the survey at both baseline and follow-up. The EQ-5D-5L health state utility (HSU) improved by 0.125 at follow-up compared with baseline. The ES of EQ-5D HSU was 0.850 in all patients and 1.152 in those who improved, indicating large responsiveness. The average (range) MCID value of the EQ-5D-5L HSU was 0.071 (0.052-0.098). These values can only be used to determine whether the change in scores were clinically meaningful at the group level. CONCLUSION: EQ-5D-5L has large responsiveness among CHD patients after undergoing PCI surgery. Future studies should focus on calculating the responsiveness and MCID for deterioration and examining the health changes at the individual level in CHD patients.
