摘要

Objective: Cost–utility analysis is gaining importance as a tool for setting priorities in health care. The approachnrequires quality-of-life weights on a scale from 0.00 (corresponding to death) to 1.00 (corresponding to perfectnhealth). Differentmethods and perspectives of the evaluators tend to give different results. Time trade-off (TTO) isnthe most commonly used method to elicit quality-of-life weights for quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs). Hownreliable are the results of this method, when limited to one speci. c perspective, as input for cost–utility analysis?nMethod: Systematic literature review of empirical studies in which the TTO is elicited by the respondent on theirnown behalf.nResults: In 56 papers, quality-of-life weights for 102 diagnostic groups were given. Ranking of the diagnosticngroups according to their quality-of-life weights had no apparent relation to severity. One speci. c diagnostic groupnwas assigned quality-of-life weights ranging from 0.39 to 0.84. Altogether, 57% of respondents did not trade any lifetimenat all in exchange for health improvements. The distributions studied were skewed towards 1.00 and werenbimodal without a central tendency. The correlation between the TTO and related methods was generally weak.nPossible explanations for the poor empirical properties of the TTO are inappropriate use of the method, lack ofnrepresentative samples, or that the TTO does not measure what it claims to measure.nConclusion: In the light of these . ndings, the TTO elicited from the patient perspective, as currently practised,nshould not be used as an input for QALYs or for comparisons of diagnostic groups.
