The EQ-5D-3L includes a visual analog scale (VAS) which is a vertical scale with numbers ranging from 0 to 100. Subjects were asked to draw a line to the place on the scale that best represented how good or bad his health was on that day. The worst state a subject can imagine is marked zero, and the best state the subject can imagine is marked 100. Mean change in VAS score from baseline is reported. An increase in score is considered a better outcome.
