Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the cost-effectiveness of high-flux hemodialysis compared to low-flux hemodialysis in the treat-ment of End-Stage Renal Disease(ESRD)patients.Methods:Based on a literature review,a cost-effectiveness analysis model was established,using the Incremental Cost-Effectiveness Ratio(ICER)as the outcome indicator to evaluate the economic value of high-flux versus low-flux hemodialysis.One-way sensitivity analysis and probabilistic sensitivity analysis were conducted to further assess the robustness of the results.Results:In the treatment of ESRD patients,compared to low-flux hemodialysis,the ICER of high-flux hemodialysis was 234 882 yuan per QALY.The key factors influencing the model results were the cost discount rate,ef-fect discount rate,utility value of high-flux hemodialysis,and treatment costs.Conclusion:Compared to low-flux hemodialysis,high-flux hemodialysis demonstrates a cost-effectiveness advantage at a willingness-to-pay threshold of three times GDP per capita.
