Cost per QALY (Quality-Adjusted Life Year) and Lifetime Cost of Prolonged Mechanical Ventilation in Taiwan
INTRODUCTION Patients who require prolonged mechanical ventilation (PMV) are increasing and producing financial burdens worldwide. This study determines the cost per QALY (quality-adjusted life year), out-of-pocket expenses, and lifetime costs for PMV patients stratified by underlying diseases and cognition levels. METHODS A nationwide sample of 50,481 patients with continual mechanical venti...
متن کاملAdding Extrinsic Goals to the Quality-Adjusted Life Year Model
M for evaluating health quality are central to medical decision analyses. The most important such method is the quality-adjusted life year (QALY), in which a patient’s length of life is given weight proportional to his/her quality of health. QALYs have become ubiquitous in medical cost-effectiveness as a measure of preference for health outcomes. However, numerous studies have demonstrated that...
متن کاملImpact of work-related cancers in Taiwan—Estimation with QALY (quality-adjusted life year) and healthcare costs
This study estimates the annual numbers of eight work-related cancers, total losses of quality-adjusted life years (QALYs), and lifetime healthcare expenditures that possibly could be saved by improving occupational health in Taiwan. Three databases were interlinked: the Taiwan Cancer Registry, the National Mortality Registry, and the National Health Insurance Research Database. Annual numbers ...
متن کاملPotential Impact of Breastfeeding and Maternal Sensitivity during the First Year of Life: An Integrative Review of the Literature
Background: Poor maternal sensitivity leads to insecure infant attachment, and has been associated with negative cognitive consequences later in life. Maternal sensitivity is an indicator of the interactions between mothers and infants characterized by mutual and concurrent interchanges. The aim of the study is to review and synthesize all published studies that examine the potential effect of ...
متن کاملNew Approaches to Evaluation: Comparative Impact Assessment
The aid process is challenging from an allocation standpoint because donors must choose between many organizations with imperfect information about all of them. This paper explores a possible method for correcting the information asymmetry inherent in allocations through comparative impact assessments. The approach combines methods from impact studies and process evaluations to create a framewo...
