Abstract:model was built to study the optimal glycemic monitoring among T2DM patients with stable glycemic control. In the Markov model, different HbA1c test intervals were compared to evaluate costs per quality-adjusted life year (QALY) and the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER). We compared every 3 months intervals (current Japanese strategy), every six months (US and UK recommendations) and annual monitoring, focusing on HbA1c test characteristics of signal (true change) and noise (error), which were report… Show more
