Costs, effects and C/E‐ratios alongside a clinical trial

Van Hout, Ben A., Al, Maiwenn J., Gordon, Gilad S., Rutten, Frans F. H.·1994·Health Economics

Abstract

A general approach is discussed to assess the uncertainty surrounding the cost effectiveness ratio (C/E‐ratio) estimated on the basis of data from a randomised clinical trial. The approach includes the calculation of a 95% probability ellipse and introduces the concept of a so called C/E‐acceptability curve. This last curve defines for each predefined C/E‐ratio the probability that the C/E‐ratio found in the study is acceptable. The approach is illustrated by estimates of costs per life saved and costs per patient discharged alive on the basis of data from a phase II trial addressing the value of anakinra in treating sepsis syndrome.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
