Outpatient Cervical Ripening: A Cost-Minimization and Threshold Analysis

American Journal of Perinatology, 2019
Objective To evaluate cost of outpatient (OP) versus inpatient (IP) ripening with transcervical balloons, and determine circumstances in which each strategy would be cost saving. Study Design We created a decision model comparing OP and IP balloon ripening in term (≥37 weeks) singleton pregnancies with unfavorable cervix.

[Cost minimization analysis of flexible ENT-endoscopes].

Laryngo- rhino- otologie, 2021
Reprocessing of complex instruments like flexible ENT-endoscopes with and without working channel are challanging for clinics and private practices. Aim of the study was to analyse the costs of an examination with a reusable endoscope-system and to compare it with two single-use endoscope-systems.A cost minimization analysis was performed at the ...

A cost-minimization analysis of laparoscopic cholecystectomy versus open cholecystectomy

The American Journal of Surgery, 1996
Earlier economic analyses have evaluated charges but not costs, and have not considered the cost of production losses associated with open and laparoscopic cholecystectomy. This study attempted to accomplish an economic evaluation of open versus laparoscopic cholecystectomy from the point of view of society.A cost-minimization analysis, using a ...

Cost-Minimization Analysis of Robotic-Assisted, Laparoscopic, and Abdominal Sacrocolpopexy

Journal of Minimally Invasive Gynecology, 2010
To perform a cost-minimization analysis comparing robotic-assisted, laparoscopic, and abdominal sacrocolpopexy.Cost-minimization analysis using a micro-costing approach (Canadian Task Force classification III).A decision model was developed to compare the costs (2008 US dollars) of robotic, laparoscopic, and abdominal sacrocolpopexy. Our model included

Cost-Minimization Analysis of Open and Endoscopic Carpal Tunnel Release

Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, 2016
Carpal tunnel release is the most common upper-limb surgical procedure performed annually in the U.S. There are 2 surgical methods of carpal tunnel release: open or endoscopic. Currently, there is no clear clinical or economic evidence supporting the use of one procedure over the other.

Cost-minimization Analysis of the Management of Acute Achilles Tendon Rupture

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2017
Background:Outcomes of nonsurgical management of acute Achilles tendon rupture have been demonstrated to be noninferior to those of surgical management. We performed a cost-minimization analysis of surgical and nonsurgical management of acute Achilles tendon rupture.Methods:We used a claims database to identify patients who underwent surgical (n = 1 ...

Cost Minimization Analysis Comparing Diagnostic Strategies in Unexplained Pancreatitis

Pancreas, 2009
Both endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) are commonly performed in the evaluation of idiopathic pancreatitis. However, comparative trials of these modalities are lacking, and thus the ideal endoscopic diagnostic strategy to evaluate idiopathic pancreatitis remains unknown.A decision analysis model ...

Cost-minimization analysis of capsulotomy after ECCE and IOL implantation

Ophthalmic Epidemiology, 1996
An economic evaluation of capsulotomy for posterior capsular opacification after extracapsular cataract extraction (ECCE) and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation was carried out using a cost minimization model. This model demonstrates the use of cost comparison to aid the decision making process.
