Economic evaluations typically focus solely on patient-specific costs with economic spillovers to informal caregivers less frequently evaluated. This may systematically underestimate the burden result...
Cost-of-illness (COI) analyses that identified costs borne to caregiver(s) were identified using PubMed and Embase. We extracted study characteristics, clinical condition, costs, and cost methods. To ...
A total of 51 studies met our search criteria for inclusion with estimates ranging from $30 - $86,543. The majority (63%, 32/51) of studies estimated caregiver time costs with fewer studies reporting ...
Schizophrenia imposes a substantial economic burden on society. This updated systematic review aims to collate the latest societal cost of schizophrenia across countries by reviewing recent cost-of-il...
An electronic search was conducted across several databases (MEDLINE, Embase, PsycINFO, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Health Management Information Consortium, and System for Information on...
Twenty-four studies were included (5 from the update review and 19 from the original review), of which only two were conducted for low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Widespread methodological h...
This review highlights the substantial economic burden of schizophrenia and a lack of COI studies for LMICs. Recommendations on future research, and good practices on improving the methodological and ...
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory condition involving individuals across all age groups. Recent data suggests the increase in the prevalence of IBD and the surge in applying t...
Patients available on clinic registry and hospital information system (HIS), who were diagnosed with IBD, were invited to take part in this study. Demographic and clinical data, the healthcare resourc...
The cost diaries were obtained from 240 subjects (Ulcerative colitis: n = 168, Crohn's disease, n = 72). The mean annual costs per patient were 1077 US$ (95% CI 900-1253), and 1608 (95% CI 1256, 1960)...
The medication was found to be the greatest contributor of direct medical costs. Productivity loss in terms of long-term disability and premature mortality were major components of IBD's economic burd...
The societal cost associated with ovarian cancer (OC) is not well known. Increasing costs for new treatments and/or the impact of organizational changes motivates these costs to be described and commu...
All patients diagnosed with ovarian, fallopian tube, primary peritoneal cancer, and serous cancer of undesignated primary site (UPS) in 2011-2012 were followed for six years. Direct costs, i.e., costs...
The cost of illness for all stages during the six years of follow-up was €201,086 per patient, where indirect costs constituted 43.7%. The mean cost of illness per year per patient for all stages was ...
Indirect costs constituted a large part of the cost of illness over 6 years from diagnosis. This could indicate that even though treatment costs can be expected to rise with the introduction of new th...
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a risk factor for several diseases and is correlated with other non-medical consequences that increase the disease's clinical and economic burden. However, OSA's impac...
This study aims at assessing the economic burden of OSA in the adult population in Italy by performing a cost-of-illness analysis with a societal perspective. In particular, we aimed at estimating the...
A systematic literature review on systematic reviews and meta-analyses, integrated by expert opinion, was performed to identify all clinical and non-clinical conditions significantly influenced by OSA...
Twenty-six clinical (e.g., diabetes) and non-clinical (e.g., car accidents) conditions were found to be significantly influenced by OSA, contributing to an economic burden ranging from €10.7 to €32.0 ...
This study demonstrates that the economic burden due to OSA is substantial, also due to low diagnosis and treatment rates. Providing reliable estimates of the economic impact of OSA at a societal leve...
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic neuroinflammatory and neurodegenerative disease negatively impacting patients' physical, psychological and social well-being with a significant economic burden....
The study estimates MS burden and cost of illness in Italy from a societal perspective in 2019....
Information on the impact of the disease on daily activities, symptoms, employment, resource utilization and the role of caregivers was collected through questionnaires completed by 944 patients and c...
The study showed a great impact of the disease on daily and work activities increasing with the disability. The overwhelming burden of fatigue emerged. Mean annual costs were estimated at €39,307/pati...
This study confirmed that MS carries a substantial burden to patients and society, highlighting the need for awareness of this disease....
Stroke imposes a heavy economic burden and loss of productivity on individuals and society. This study assessed a range of crucial factors, including direct costs and indirect costs, to gauge the econ...
A cost-of-illness methodology was used to ascertain the economic implications of stroke in 2018. Within the constraints of this approach, economic costs were defined as 'direct costs' or 'indirect cos...
In 2018, of the economic burden of stroke in China, the direct costs were ¥247.8 billion ($PPP 58.6 billion) and indirect costs were ¥704.4 billion ($PPP 166.5 billion). The curative care expenditure ...
A significant economic burden is imposed by stroke on China's economy, and there is a risk of underestimating this burden if indirect costs are not comprehensively considered. The importance of implem...
Lung cancer is the most common cancer in men and the second most common cancer in women. It is associated with substantial economic impact in terms of direct and indirect costs. The main objective of ...
The study included 271 patients, with an average age of 62.5 ± 9.5 years. Of these, 93.4 % were men and 92.1 % were former smokers. In terms of cancer staging, 68.3 % of patients were in stage IV whil...
These results provide evidence to support the ratification of the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control and the full adherence of the Kingdom of Morocco to the MPOWER measures....
To estimate the cost of surgical site infections in Australian public hospitals in 2018-19, to demonstrate the economic burden of hospital-associated infection in a well-resourced health system....
A cost-of-illness analysis was conducted over a 1-year time horizon based on data from published literature extrapolated using simulation techniques. The direct and indirect costs of SSI were estimate...
An estimated 16,541 cases of SSI occurred in Australian public hospitals in 2018-19, resulting in a total direct cost of A$323.5 million. The average cost per case was A$18,814, which was 2.5 times th...
SSI is a significant but preventable cost with most of the financial burden coming from premature deaths but underreporting means our costs are likely underestimated....
