Primary

Measure	Time frame	Description
EQ-VAS	1 year	EQ-VAS is measured at first visit, at time for treatment and 3, 6 and 12 months after treatment. EQ-VAS gives a value of quality of life, and mainly used to verify the results achieved from EQ-5D since it is not possible to calculate QALY from EQ-VAS
EQ-5D	1 year	EQ-5D is assessed at first visit, at time for treatment and 3, 6 and 12 months after treatment. Quality of life is calculated from EQ-5D using the TTO-valuated UK value sets. This value can also be used for calculation of QALY, Quality adjusted life years.
