Health Utility Weighting of the Modified Rankin Scale: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis. [PDF]
The utility-weighted modified Rankin Scale (UW-mRS) has been proposed as a patient-centered alternative primary outcome for stroke clinical trials. However, to date, there is no clear consensus on an approach to weighting the mRS.To characterize the between-study variability in utility weighting of the mRS in a population of patients who experienced ...
