A Cost-effectiveness Analysis of Alternative Approaches for Long-term Treatment of Proximal Venous Thrombosis

A Cost-effectiveness Analysis of Alternative Approaches for Long-term Treatment of Proximal... Recent data from randomized trials have provided a clear understanding of the effectiveness and safety of differing long-term anticoagulant therapies for proximal vein thrombosis. An issue that has not been addressed is their cost-effectiveness. We have performed a cost-effectiveness analysis to rank alternative approaches for long-term therapy. Less intense oral anticoagulant therapy using warfarin sodium is the most cost-effective approach and is preferred in the majority of patients.

Abstract

Recent data from randomized trials have provided a clear understanding of the effectiveness and safety of differing long-term anticoagulant therapies for proximal vein thrombosis. An issue that has not been addressed is their cost-effectiveness. We have performed a cost-effectiveness analysis to rank alternative approaches for long-term therapy. Less intense oral anticoagulant therapy using warfarin sodium is the most cost-effective approach and is preferred in the majority of patients. (JAMA 1984;252:235-239)
