Abstract:
Objective:To systematically review the methodology in clinical trial-based health economics study with cost-effectiveness ratio for nutritional drug.Methods:The literature on health economics study for nutritional drug was retrieved from PubMed and Wanfang Medical Network by October 2019. The literature was selected according to inclusion and exclusion criteria, and was assessed using the Cochrane Risk Bias Assessment Tool and Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Its methodology such as participants and grouping, confounding factors, research perspective, cost accounting, health outcomes and health economics analysis methods, sensitivity analysis, etc, was systematically reviewed as well.Results:Four target literatures were included in this study. The participants were from gastroenterology, gastrointestinal surgery, etc. Random grouping, regression, propensity score matching method, etc, were used to control confounding factors. The research perspective needed to be clear according to the principle of health economics study. The present literatures focused on "direct medical costs" , and calculated cost-effectiveness ratio or incremental cost-effectiveness ratio to evaluate the economics of medical interventions.Conclusion:The evidence of high-quality health economics research in parenteral and enteral nutrition area in China needs to be promoted, especially in the control of confounding factors, the choice of research perspective and sensitivity analysis, which are supposed to be explored by multidisciplinary research teams in practice.
