Cost-Effectiveness Analysis of Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator Therapy for Primary Prevention Patients with Additional Risk Factors in Brazil

چکیده
Abstract Background: Implantable cardiac defibrillators (ICDs) therapy for primary prevention (PP) of sudden arrest (SCA) is well-established but underutilized globally. The Improve SCA study has identified a cohort patients called 1.5 (1.5PP), based on PP with the presence documented risk factors: non-sustained ventricular tachycardia, frequent premature contractions, left ejection fraction < 25%, and pre-syncope or syncope. Objective: This evaluated cost-effectiveness ICD compared to no among 1.5PP [...]

Cost effectiveness of the implantable cardioverter defibrillator: a preliminary analysis.
BACKGROUND An implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) may be effective in reducing the risk of sudden cardiac death. The high cost of ICD treatment, however, compared with alternatives raises the question of whether this new technology is an efficient use of scarce health care resources. OBJECTIVE To estimate the incremental cost effectiveness of the implantable cardioverter defibrillato...
متن کاملImplantable cardioverter-defibrillator in a patient with dextrocardia situs inversus
Background: Dextrocardia is a congenital anomaly, which may have coexistent coronary artery disease (CAD), arrhythmias and conventional indications for device therapy. However, the implantation of transvenous leads can be technically challenging and the approach needs to be tailored to the patient's individual anatomy. Case presentation: A 54-year-old male with dextrocardia situs inversus and i...
متن کاملIncidence and predictors of implantable cardioverter-defibrillator therapy in patients with arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia/cardiomyopathy undergoing implantable cardioverter-defibrillator implantation for primary prevention.
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to define the incidence and predictors of implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) therapy in patients with arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia/cardiomyopathy (ARVD/C) after placement of an ICD for primary prevention. BACKGROUND Patients with a diagnosis of ARVD/C often receive an ICD for prevention of sudden cardiac death. METHODS Patient...
متن کاملProphylactic implantable cardioverter-defibrillator therapy in patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction: a pooled analysis of 10 primary prevention trials.
Strategies to decrease sudden cardiac death in patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction are evolving. Recent clinical trials have evaluated the role of prophylactic implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) in patients with and without additional risk stratifiers. We pooled studies comparing treatment with and without ICDs from published data and presented abstracts, irrespectiv...
متن کاملCost-effectiveness of the implantable cardioverter-defibrillator: results from the Canadian Implantable Defibrillator Study (CIDS).
BACKGROUND In the Canadian Implantable Defibrillator Study (CIDS), we assessed the cost-effectiveness of the implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) in reducing the risk of death in survivors of previous ventricular tachycardia (VT) or fibrillation (VF). METHODS AND RESULTS Healthcare resource use was collected prospectively on the first 430 patients enrolled in CIDS (n=212 ICD, n=218 am...
