Real-world assessment of the relationship between migraine-related disability and healthcare costs in the United States.

Objective: The objective of this study was to determine the associations among migraine disability assessment scores, healthcare resource utilization (HCRU; medical visits and pharmacy use) and direct medical costs among people with episodic migraine in a real-world setting.

Background: Migraine is a public health concern associated with a substantial economic burden in the United States. However, the association between migraine disability and direct medical costs among people with migraine is unknown.

Real-World Evidence of Treatment, Tolerance, Healthcare Utilization, and Costs Among Postacute Care Adult Patients Receiving Enteral Peptide-Based Diets in the United States.

Objective: Peptide -based (PB) enteral tube feeding (ETF) formulas have been shown to reduce gastrointestinal (GI) intolerance in patients receiving enteral nutrition. However, limited data exist in relation to their use in the postacute/home care setting. We sought to assess the real-world GI tolerance, healthcare utilization, and resource use costs of 100% whey-protein PB ETF in adults in a postacute care setting and describe their demographic, clinical, and treatment characteristics.
