説明

There is evidence that silver alloy catheters reduce the incidence of catheter-associated urinary tract infection (UTI). However, silver alloy catheters are more expensive compared to standard urinary catheters. We assessed the economic impact of using silver alloy catheters by conducting simulation based on clinical decision analysis. We chose the cases requiring indwelling catheters within 1 week and estimated expected cost. We made a decision tree and conducted a simulation integrating the data of patient characteristics, clinical outcome, the probability of disease state progression and cost. Use of silver alloy catheters resulted in estimated cost saving of approximately 20% compared with standard catheters (5, 464 yen vs. 6, 777yen). Using silver alloy catheters for patients requiring short term urinary catheterization prevent the incidence of UTI and the prolonged length of hospital stay, and produce cost saving compared with standard catheters.
