Base Case Cost-Effectiveness Analysis of Treatment Strategies.

aUsing the ‘Aspirin’ arm as the reference as it is the treatment with the lowest cost among all the comparison arms.bA disutility of 0.001 (i.e. utility of 0.999) [25] was applied during the period aspirin was taken.Note• A treatment is dominated if it is both more costly and less effective than aspirin.• The calculations of QALY and LYG reflected in the table have been rounded to the nearest 2 decimal places for ease of reading. As such, the summation some figures may vary slightly from the total figures reflected in the table. Similarly, the ICER results are reported to the nearest hundred.Base Case Cost-Effectiveness Analysis of Treatment Strategies.
