questionnaires

Each subject will complete an EQ5D questionnaire, to allow Quality of Life to be calculated. The EQ5D uses a Likert scale which assesses five states (mobility, self care, usual care, pain and discomfort and anxiety and depression) at five different levels - none, slight, moderate, severe or unable to perform. Levels are coded 1-5 and a total score is then generated. Results for the demographic measured will be displayed as a percentage value.
