In-Utero Treatment of Bilateral Renal Agenesis: A Threshold Analysis of Possible Cost Effectiveness
نویسنده
چکیده
Results: Our model predicts that there are plausible conditions under which serial amnioinfusion is cost effective for bilateral renal agenesis. Threshold analysis revealed that serial amnioinfusion must achieve gestational-age appropriate lung function in 12% of cases for intervention to be cost-effective. Time on dialysis, probability of survival to transplant, overall life expectancy and quality of life after transplant significantly affect whether this intervention is cost effective.
