Valuation of preference-based measures: can existing preference data be used to select a smaller sample of health states?The European Journal of Health Economics - - 2018
Samer A. Kharroubi, Donna Rowen
Different countries have different preferences regarding health, and there are different value sets for popular preference-based measures across different countries. However, the cost of collecting data to generate country-specific value sets can be prohibitive for countries with smaller population size or low- and middle-income countries (LMIC). This paper explores whether existing preference wei...... hiện toàn bộ
A method for cross-sector priority settingThe European Journal of Health Economics - Tập 5 - Trang 317-323 - 2004
Tugrul Temel
This study proposes a new priority setting method for identifying critical information gaps in a multisector system. The method uses graph-theoretical concepts and principles of systems theory in characterizing the underlying information structure of the system. Its application is illustrated in the context of malaria control in Tanzania, drawing on the findings of a workshop held in October 2003 ...... hiện toàn bộ
Comparing EQ-5D-3L and EQ-5D-5L in measuring the HRQoL burden of 4 health conditions in ChinaThe European Journal of Health Economics - Tập 24 - Trang 197-207 - 2022
Guizhi Weng, Yanming Hong, Nan Luo, Clara Mukuria, Jie Jiang, Zhihao Yang, Sha Li
EQ-5D-3L has been used in the National Health Services Survey of China since 2008 to monitor population health. The five-level version of EQ-5D was developed, but there lacks evidence to support the use of five-level version of EQ-5D in China. This study was conducted to compare the measurement properties of both the EQ-5D-3L and EQ-5D-5L in quantifying health-related quality of life (HRQoL) burde...... hiện toàn bộ
Predicting hospital costs for patients receiving renal replacement therapy to inform an economic evaluationThe European Journal of Health Economics - Tập 17 - Trang 659-668 - 2015
Bernadette Li, John Cairns, James Fotheringham, Rommel Ravanan
To develop a model to predict annual hospital costs for patients with established renal failure, taking into account the effect of patient and treatment characteristics of potential relevance for conducting an economic evaluation, such as age, comorbidities and time on treatment. The analysis focuses on factors leading to variations in inpatient and outpatient costs and excludes fixed costs associ...... hiện toàn bộ
Cost effectiveness of palivizumab in Spain: an analysis using observational dataThe European Journal of Health Economics - Tập 11 - Trang 105-115 - 2009
Mark J. Nuijten, Wolfgang Wittenberg
To assess the cost effectiveness of palivizumab for prevention of severe respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) disease in high-risk infants in Spain, incorporating country-specific observational hospitalisation data. An existing decision tree model, designed using data from a large international clinical trial of palivizumab versus no prophylaxis, was updated to include Spanish observational hospitali...... hiện toàn bộ
Estimating the social cost of respiratory cancer cases attributable to occupational exposures in FranceThe European Journal of Health Economics - Tập 15 - Trang 661-673 - 2013
Hassan Serrier, Hélène Sultan-Taieb, Danièle Luce, Sophie Bejean
The objective of this article was to estimate the social cost of respiratory cancer cases attributable to occupational risk factors in France in 2010. According to the attributable fraction method and based on available epidemiological data from the literature, we estimated the number of respiratory cancer cases due to each identified risk factor. We used the cost-of-illness method with a prevalen...... hiện toàn bộ
