Muhtasari	The EQ-5D is a standardized, preference-based health utility measure developed by the EuroQol Group in 1990. It combines a descriptive health profile (five dimensions, three or five response levels) with a visual analog scale to quantify overall health status. The instrument has become essential for health economics, clinical trials, and cost-effectiveness analysis worldwide.	The SF-36 is a generic, self-administered 36-item questionnaire measuring eight dimensions of health status. Developed by Ware and Sherbourne in 1992, it has become the most widely used health survey in clinical trials, outcomes research, and population health monitoring. It assesses perceived health across physical and mental domains relevant to the general adult population.	The SF-8 is an ultra-brief, 8-item version of the SF-36 health survey developed by Ware and colleagues in 2005. Designed for extreme time-constraint settings and large-scale epidemiological surveys, the SF-8 maintains strong correlation with SF-36 and SF-12 domains while requiring only 1–2 minutes to complete.	The WHOQOL-BREF is the brief version of the World Health Organization's quality of life assessment, developed by the WHO Quality of Life Group and published in 1998. It measures quality of life across physical, psychological, social, and environmental domains in a single 26-item self-report questionnaire. It has become the primary quality of life instrument in global health research and clinical practice.
