Abstract

IntroductionCerebral palsy (CP) is a lifelong condition. The CP quality of life (CPQOL) instrument is a frequently used disease-specific instrument to assess health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in people with CP, but it cannot be used to generate quality-adjusted life years (QALY) which are the basis of cost utility analysis (CUA). Generic utility instruments (such as the EQ-5D or SF-6D) that are used to value HRQOL may be insensitive to small but important health changes in children with CP. This study aims to generate a preference-based scoring algorithm for the CP six dimensions (CP-6D), a classification system developed from the CPQOL.Methods and analysisA discrete choice experiment with duration (DCEtto) will be administrated to value health states described by the CP-6D classification system. These health states will be presented to members of Australian general population and parents of children with CP via an online survey. Conditional logit regression will be used to produce the utility algorithm for CP-6D.Ethics and disseminationThe Griffith University Human Research Ethics Committee approved for the study (reference HREC/number 2018/913). The developed algorithm can be applied to previous and future economic evaluation of interventions and treatments targeting people with CP which have used either the CPQOL or CP-6D.
