Objective  To systematically review the health state utility values in patients with schizophrenia, and to provide references for subsequent studies on the health economics of schizophrenia. Methods  The PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, WanFang Data, and VIP databases were searched from inception to December 1st, 2021 to collect studies on health state utility values in patients with schizophrenia. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. Meta-analysis was then performed by Stata 15.0 software. Results  A total of 19 studies were included. Patients’ utility values were 0.68 (95%CI 0.59 to 0.77) for direct measures, and 0.77 (95%CI 0.75 to 0.80) and 0.66 (95%CI 0.61 to 0.70) for indirect measures with the EQ-5D-5L and EQ-5D-3L as the primary scales. Utility values varied with measures, tariffs, regions, and populations. Conclusion  Studies on health state utility value in schizophrenia are diversified in measurement methods, showing high inter-study heterogeneity. Therefore, it is necessary to promote the study on utility value measurement in schizophrenia in China.
