ICU sedation, delirium & recovery
The Psychometric Properties of the EuroQol 5D Five Level in Survivors of Critical Illness
Authors' conclusion
The EQ-5D-5L, using the Australian value set, demonstrated evidence of good internal consistency and validity, but poor responsiveness in a critically ill population.
