Health‐related quality‐of‐life treatments for severe haemophilia: utility measurements using the Standard Gamble technique

Abstract: Prophylaxis for haemophilia improves outcomes, but at a substantial cost. Cost-utility analysis balances improvements seen in health-related quality of life (HRQoL) against costs, with the purpose of aiding healthcare decision-making. This analysis uses a measure of HRQoL known as utility. The objective of this study was to measure HRQoL (utility) values for states of health that result from on-demand therapy or prophylaxis. The HRQoL for different health states (including target joint bleeding, different inte… Show more

“…315,330 In contrast, Kuppermann and colleagues used the TTO method to ask parents how much time off their life expectancy they would be willing to trade to avoid their child experiencing particular outcomes after different childhood vaccinations. 312 Other researchers do not explicitly state the perspective taken, 303,306,331 but appear to assume they are measuring an adult (parent or other) perspective on children's health outcomes. We could not identify any comparative study that investigated the relative importance of different perspectives.…”

“…They conclude that hemophilia and its treatment affect HRQoL. They emphasized that prophylaxis is preferable to ondemand therapy (5). HRQoL may be better for hemophilia patients treated prophylactically.…”

“…For example, parents of children with type 2 diabetes mellitus, hemophilia, and severe mental retardation were all willing to give up 3% to 49% of their child's survival time in order to achieve perfect health [4,21,24]. The results of this study may be used in several ways.…”
