Abstract Background Refractory cardiogenic shock (CS) is associated with high mortality rates, and the use of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) as a therapeutic option has generated discussions. Therefore, its cost-effectiveness, especially in low- middle-income countries like Brazil, remains uncertain.Objectives: To conduct cost-utility analysis from Brazilian Unified Health System perspective to assess cost-effectiveness VA-ECMO combined standard care compared...

Introdução A qualidade metodológica de avaliações econômicas em saúde (AES) é um fator importante a ser considerado no processo tomada decisões sobre incorporações tecnologias, pois informa o gestor elementos críticos dentro do decisório. Entretanto, as AES muitas vezes apresentam uma complexidade que torna avaliação da prática desafiadora e pouco executada. Existem diversas ferramentas buscam auxiliar crítica AES. No entanto, geral, disponíveis importantes limitações, como não fatores...
Introdução Avaliações econômicas em saúde (AES) auxiliam a decisão relacionada à incorporação de tecnologias nos sistemas saúde, processo conduzido por organizações como Comissão Nacional Incorporação Tecnologias no SUS (CONITEC) e Agência Saúde Suplementar (ANS). Para que forneçam resultados fidedignos, as AES devem apresentar qualidade metodológica relato adequado. O Consolidated Health Economic Evaluation Reporting Standards (CHEERS) é ferramenta mais utilizada na avaliação da do AES;...
Introduction Health economic analyses compare the necessary investments and health outcomes for two or more technologies, assisting in resource allocation. How these are conducted directly affects results obtained. Therefore, it is essential to consider their quality during decision-making. The aim of this study was develop a domain-based tool critical assessment cost-effectiveness cost-utility studies. Methods We scoping review identify tools available extracted recommendations. Based on...

Purpose: Pulmonary barotrauma (PBT) is a complication typically seen in intubated patients but rare event those using non-invasive ventilation (NIV) support. In this case report, we identified five with COVID-19 who developed PBT on NIV support hospital of southern Brazil from March to April 2021.
Narrative/ introduction. In the last edition of Surviving Sepsis Campaign guidelines - SSC recommendations regarding optimization antibiotics pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) were made. Among these, use extended infusion beta-lactams (penicillins, cephalosporins carbapenems), are proposed to improve clinical microbiological outcomes. However, according authors, studies economic implications – cost-effectiveness needed for these recommendations. Caveats. represents a huge burden...
