Protection against vaccine-preventable diseases is especially relevant in older adults due to age-related decline immunity (immunosenescence). However, adult vaccination remains a challenge with overall low coverage rates, which has an impact on both the patients who have these and health care system terms of resource use costs derived. This study aimed estimate direct economic herpes zoster, pneumococcal disease, influenza pertussis Spanish 45 years older.Data from 2015 were extracted two...

To analyse the cost-effectiveness of MEP with standard care (SoC) versus other anti-IL-5 therapies approved for treatment severe eosinophilic asthma (SEA) patients, within Spanish National Health System (NHS) perspective.A Markov model a 4-week cycle length was used to compare BEN and RES as added SoC in management SEA, terms cost per QALY gained incremental ratio (ICER). Costs (€2019) were obtained from public sources, while utilities transition probabilities retrieved literature, e.g....

Immunization is the most effective strategy for prevention of invasive meningococcal disease caused by Neisseria meningitidis serogroup B (MenB); however, parents need to weigh risk–benefit and financial impact immunizing their children against MenB in absence a national immunization program (NIP). This study aimed explore societal preferences (of pediatricians) regarding attributes vaccine Spain. A discrete choice experiment (DCE) based on cross-sectional surveys was carried out determine...

Invasive meningococcal disease (IMD) is a severe infectious disease, mainly affecting children under 5 years, associated with long-term physical, neurological and psychological sequelae. In Spain, most IMD cases are caused by serogroup B (MenB). This study estimates its economic burden from societal perspective in Spain.A previously published bottom-up, model-based incidence costing approach Scholz et al.

Background: Invasive meningococcal disease (IMD) remains a public health concern because of its serious consequences, which mainly affect infants and young children. In Spain, Neisseria meningitidis serotype B accounts for &gt;40% IMD cases. The multicomponent serogroup vaccine (4CMenB) is available privately in the absence national funding Spain. This study evaluates whether potential inequities access to 4CMenB exist among families financial disparities. Methods: An ecological correlation...
