Description: EQ-5D is a widely used health-related quality-of-life instrument 
    developed by the EuroQol Group and used in the clinical and economic 
    evaluation of health care. Health is described using five dimensions 
    (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and 
    anxiety/depression) rated on either a three-level (EQ-5D-3L and EQ-5D-Y-3L) 
    or five-level (EQ-5D-5L) scale. Responses can be reported as EQ-5D health 
    states or converted to utility index scores using country-specific value 
    sets. The package provides methods for the valuation, reporting and
    analysis of EQ-5D data. Utility index scores can be calculated for
    EQ-5D-3L, EQ-5D-5L and EQ-5D-Y-3L data using a wide range of value sets and 
    mapping approaches. Functionality is also provided for descriptive-system 
    reporting, severity and distributional summaries, informativity measures, 
    health-state distribution analysis, longitudinal change analysis, 
    probability of superiority analysis and Health Profile Grid visualisation. 
    Methods described in Devlin et al. (2020) <doi:10.1007/978-3-030-47622-9> 
    are implemented where appropriate. A companion 'Shiny' application is 
    included for interactive analysis and visualisation of EQ-5D datasets.
