Objective: This study is an economic evaluation of total knee replacement (TKR) in comparison with non-surgical management in India.
Methods: Cost-utility analysis and budget impact analysis (BIA) were conducted on individuals aged ≥ 50 years with osteoarthritis of the knee (OA knee) Kellgren-Lawrence grades 2 and 3 using a provider's perspective. Three scenarios were considered, varying the age at which TKR is administered while assuming a 20-year lifespan for the implant.
Article Synopsis
- * A comprehensive literature search from 2010 onwards will be conducted across multiple databases, and studies will be selected using Rayyan software, following PRISMA guidelines and evaluated for quality with Joanna Briggs Institute tools.
- * The findings will offer important information for healthcare providers and policymakers to develop screening guidelines for BRCA mutations in breast and ovarian cancer cases.
Objectives: The main objective of this review is to summarize the evidence on the core modelling specifications and methodology on the cost-effectiveness of TKR compared to non-surgical management. Another objective of this study is to synthesize evidence of TKR cost and compare it across countries using purchasing power parity (PPP).
Methodology: The electronic databases used for this review were MEDLINE (PubMed), Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), HTAIn repository, Cost effectiveness Analysis (CEA) registry, and Google Scholar.
