Vignette-Based Utilities: Usefulness, Limitations, and Methodological Recommendations
2021, Value in HealthCitation Excerpt :Previous research has examined the effects of naming (ie, labeling) the disease in a health state. There is some evidence that naming the disease can influence utility,82 although other studies have reported that the disease label did not affect results.83,84 Some diseases such as cancer or human immunodeficiency virus may be associated with preconceptions, fear, stigma, or bias.
Valuing preferences for treating screen detected ductal carcinoma in situ
2019, European Journal of CancerValuing the health states associated with breast cancer screening programmes: A systematic review of economic measures
2019, Social Science and MedicineCitation Excerpt :No primary study explicitly considered the impact of the risk of overdiagnosis or unnecessary treatment in any of the health states described. Only Gerard (Gerard et al., 1993) and Hall (Hall et al., 1992) introduced the notion of dying of causes other than breast cancer in their vignettes, although they did not explicitly include the risk of unnecessary follow up and treatment. Kim et al. (2017) explicitly included risk in their health state descriptions of surgery and radiotherapy but only provided estimates for recurrence and survival, assuming all treatment was necessary for non-invasive disease.
Health State Utilities Associated with Glucose Monitoring Devices
2017, Value in HealthDoes the process of deliberation change individuals' health state valuations? An exploratory study using the person trade-off technique
2013, Value in HealthCitation Excerpt :However, our impression from the interview and observational data suggests that detailed discussions around health states and the implications of resource allocation decisions did take place. This detailed discussion may well have been driven by the framing of the scenarios and the inclusion of the disease label [39,40]. Results from our study suggested that valuations are more stable and less subject to change when the choice is less complex; that is, the trade is between a moderate health state (such as low back pain) and a severe health state (such as quadriplegia).
