Abstract

Abstract

Quality-adjusted life years （QALYs）, as a kind of multi-dimensional health utility index, has been widely used in the health economics evaluation and disease burden evaluation. At present, there are no detailed reports on the calculation methods of QALYs under different research types. This paper mainly discusses the basic principle and process of QALYs calculation, and further summarizes how to select the suitable QALYs estimation method according to the research design in the specific research, so as to provide a reference for researchers, and promote its application in the field of health research in China.
- Quality-adjusted life years,
- Health economics evaluation,
- Disease burden assessment
