AD-5D algorithm for generating utility values from the QOL-AD instrument

This dataset consists of an excel spreadsheet and stata do file. These provide the scoring algorithm that will convert QOL-AD scores to the AD-5D utility score for use in economic evaluation of interventions for people living with dementia. The spreadsheet can be used as a stand-alone scoring instrument. Instructions are given in the spreadsheet. Alternatively, STATA users may prefer to use the provided do file to match their data and generate the values.

本数据集包含一份Excel电子表格与一份Stata do文件，二者提供了将QOL-AD（Quality of Life-Alzheimer's Disease）量表得分转换为AD-5D（Alzheimer's Disease 5-Dimension）效用得分的评分算法，可用于痴呆患者干预措施的经济学评价。该电子表格可作为独立评分工具使用，内置操作说明。此外，Stata用户可直接使用所提供的do文件匹配自身数据并生成对应效用分值。
