Aims. To compare the cost-utility of standard dressing with incisional negative-pressure wound therapy (iNPWT) in adults with closed surgical wounds associated with major trauma to the lower limbs. Methods. A
A pragmatic multicentre randomised controlled trial (PROFHER)
was conducted in United Kingdom National Health Service (NHS) hospitals
to evaluate the clinical effectiveness and cost effectiveness of
surgery compared with non-surgical treatment for displaced fractures
of the proximal humerus involving the surgical neck in adults. A cost utility analysis from the NHS perspective was performed.
Differences between surgical and non-surgical treatment groups in
costs and quality adjusted life years (QALYs) at two years were
used to derive an estimate of the cost effectiveness of surgery
using regression methods. Aims
Methods
Aims. To compare the cost-effectiveness of high-dose, dual-antibiotic cement versus single-antibiotic cement for the treatment of displaced intracapsular hip fractures in older adults. Methods. Using data from a multicentre randomized controlled trial (World Hip Trauma Evaluation 8 (WHiTE-8)) in the UK, a
