Description :
The King\'s Health Questionnaire (KHQ) is a disease-specific,
self-administered questionnaire designed specific to assess the impact
of Urinary Incontinence (UI) on Quality of Life. The questionnaire was
developed by Kelleher and collaborators (1997)
< doi:10.1111/j.1471-0528.1997.tb11006.x>. It is a simple, acceptable
and reliable measure to use in the clinical setting and a research tool
that is useful in evaluating UI treatment outcomes. The KHQ five
dimensions (KHQ5D) is a condition-specific preference-based measure
developed by Brazier and collaborators (2008)
< doi:10.1177/0272989X07301820>. Although not as popular as the SF6D
< doi:10.1016/S0895-4356(98)00103-6> and EQ-5D < https://euroqol.org/>,
the KHQ5D measures health-related quality of life (HRQoL) specifically
for UI, not general conditions like the others two instruments
mentioned. The KHQ5D ca be used in the clinical and economic evaluation
of health care. The subject self-rates their health in terms of five
dimensions: Role Limitation (RL), Physical Limitations (PL), Social
Limitations (SL), Emotions (E), and Sleep (S). Frequently the states on
these five dimensions are converted to a single utility index using
country specific value sets, which can be used in the clinical and
economic evaluation of health care as well as in population health
surveys. This package provides methods to calculate scores for each
dimension of the KHQ; converts KHQ item scores to KHQ5D scores; and
also calculates the utility index of the KHQ5D.
