Abstract

Work Productivity Loss And Indirect Costs Associated With New Cardiovascular Events In High-Risk Patients With Hyperlipidemia - Estimates From Population-Based Register Data In Sweden

Highlights

  • The lowest incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICER) were obtained with the EuroQol-5 dimension (EQ-5D) but this may not capture side-effects picked up by the cancer-specific utility measures

  • The aim of the study was to assess the comparative efficacy of recommended treatment for chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction in terms of all-cause mortality based on a network met-analysis (NMA) of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and to explore the impact of alternative treatment classifications depending on concomitant treatments

  • Using the 2010 Dutch Hospital Data (DHD), we identified all patients admitted to hospital with Acute heart failure (AHF) as a primary diagnosis

Summary

Objectives

To assess the impact of different levels of clinical pharmacy intervention (CPI) on therapeutic plan and cost saving through monitoring and follow-up of some medications (including 20% Human Albumin, Meropenem and Cefepime) over three separated months. Regarding Cefepime, both PCPI and ECPI reduced the dispensed quantity, interestingly PCPI saved more than ECPI (25% and 4.58% respectively) This could be due to the clinical pharmacist recommendation according to local antibiogram. Costello Medical Consulting Ltd., Cambridge, UK Objectives: To ascertain whether disease prevalence alone explains elective and non-elective patient admission rates, general practitioner (GP) referral rates and prescribing spends in 20 North London Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs). Results: Of the 20 North London CCGs included in this analysis, 4 reported a higher non-elective admission rate (per 1,000 of the population) than the national average. Conclusions: Disease prevalence appears to explain rates of elective admissions and GP referrals relatively well in North London CCGs compared to non-elective admission rates. Non-elective admissions commonly occur in emergency situations, making
