Go to The Article Processing Charge was funded by the authors.Submitted and externally peer reviewed. The handling editor was Editor-in-Chief José Merino, MD, MPhil, FAAN.The EuroQol Group 5-Dimension Self-Reported Questionnaire (EQ-5D) is a well-established instrument to assess quality of life and generates generic utility values for health states reported by patients, derived from assessments by the general public. We hypothesized that language problems and other nonmotor deficits are not captured as well as motor deficits by this system. We aimed to quantify the association between disabling neurologic deficits and the EQ-5D dimension scores and the utility score in patients with ischemic stroke.
