Cost-utility analysis from a societal perspective
Health Policy, 1997In this paper, we outline how to use cost-utility analysis from a societal perspective and the arguments that could be made for using data such as a model for economic evaluation of health care. We show that to include all the costs in the analysis, a price per quality-adjusted life years (QALY) gained rather than a given budget should be used as the ...

Cost–utility analysis in evaluating prophylaxis in haemophilia
Haemophilia, 2004Summary. Prophylaxis is an expensive form of management in haemophilia but has demonstrated many advantages with respect to decreasing joint bleeds and potentially preventing joint damage. The valuation of prophylaxis and how the costs and benefits of this intervention compare with other interventions in the management of haemophiliacs can be ...

In many cases it is difficult to apply cost-effectiveness analysis since the health effects are difficult to express in a single effectiveness unit. Apart from affecting survival, a treatment may for instance also affect the health status, which means that the effects on health status will not be included if the gained life years are used as the ...

A cost utility analysis of mammography screening in Australia
Social Science & Medicine, 1992Cost utility analysis is the preferred method of analysis when quality of life instead is an important outcome of the project being appraised. However, there are several methodological issues to be resolved in implementing cost utility analysis, including whether to use generalised measures or direct disease specific outcome assessment, the choice of ...

Welfare economics and cost-utility analysis
1992It is generally agreed that the final output of the health care system is expected to be an improvement in health status. The various components of the health care system produce a wide variety of intermediate outputs which are almost invariably used as inputs into another production function which may again produce intermediate outputs and so on, but ...

Synthesizes simultaneously multiple outcomes (e.g. on both morbidity and mortality, pain and physical function, but also quality) into a single measure; the basis for this type of analysis is that each outcome is weighted by a person’s preference (“utility”) for experiencing the outcome; CUA relates therefore the costs of different procedures to the ...

Cost-Utility Analysis of Early Thrombolytic Therapy
PharmacoEconomics, 1992167 patients suffering from acute myocardial infarction (AMI) were recruited from 12 cardiology centres and given thrombolytic treatment. Cost-utility analyses were performed and a cost-utility ratio was computed according to time of initiation of thrombolysis after the AMI and the location of the infarct.
