Patients with S. aureus or P. aeruginosa pneumonia had estimated incremental index hospitalization costs of $100,000-$100,000-$160,000l healthcare costs of $107,000-$107,000-$167,000CU patients without pneumonia.
With regard to assumptions on the probability of HF hospitalizations after one year for patients with NSO, a linear increase was assumed based on the incremental rate of hospitalization between 6 and 12 months observed for this group in the CLEAR post-hoc study.
We evaluate the effects of oral clefts in both functions and estimate the overall combined incremental effect on hospitalization days from both models.
The incremental cost per hospitalization associated with bleeding-related complications and adjusted for covariates was highest for spinal surgery ($17,279) followed by vascular ($15,123), solid organ ($13,210), non-cardiac thoracic ($13,473), cardiac ($10,279), general ($4,354), knee/hip replacement ($3,005), and reproductive organ ($2,805).
As shown in the tornado diagram, the model is sensitive to the following two parameters: lurasidone hospitalization rate (incremental net monetary benefit range, −$4,530 to $7,489) and risperidone hospitalization rate (−$1,469 to $4,429).
‡Costs are incremental to that of the index cardiovascular hospitalization and given as mean (SD) per patient in US$.
These models, however, excluded key drivers of total and incremental costs such as the costs of hospitalization and prescription drugs.
Most of the incremental medical cost ($82 million) was related to hospitalizations resulting from erythromycin non-susceptibility.
Analysis of the different components of health care costs (Table 8) showed that the progressive incremental cost was mainly because of antidiabetic drugs, hospitalizations for diabetes-related problems, and use of outpatient services.
Differences in hospitalization rates accounted for half of the incremental cost of AF.
