Abstract

Background: The SF‐6D is a new health state classification and utility scoring system based on 6 dimensions (‘6D’) of the Short Form 36, and permits a “bridging” transformation between SF‐36 responses and utilities. The Health Utilities Index, mark 3 (HUI3) is a valid and reliable multi‐attribute health utility scale that is widely used. We assessed within‐subject agreement between SF‐6D utilities and those from HUI3. Methods: Patients at increased risk of sudden cardiac death and participating in a randomized trial of implantable defibrillator therapy completed both instruments at baseline. Score distributions were inspected by scatterplot and histogram and mean score differences compared by paired t‐test. Pearson correlation was computed between instrument scores and also between dimension scores within instruments. Between‐instrument agreement was by intra‐class correlation coefficient (ICC). Results: SF‐6D and HUI3 forms were available from 246 patients. Mean scores for HUI3 and SF‐6D were 0.61 (95% CI 0.60–0.63) and 0.58 (95% CI 0.54–0.62) respectively; a difference of 0.03 (p
