As such, our study supports the use of the 5 L as the preferred health-related quality of life measurement tool. We did not do a trial but this study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of Universitas Gadjah Mada Yogyakarta, Indonesia (document number KE/FK/1188/EC, 12 November 2014, amended 16 March 2015). ## Keywords - EQ-5D - Ceiling effect - Medicine - Health related quality of life - Quality of life (healthcare) - Indonesian - Discriminative model - Gerontology - Physical therapy - Alternative medicine - Internal medicine - Philosophy - Computer science - Artificial intelligence - Pathology - Linguistics - Nursing - Disease --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
