Thrombolysis (rTPA) and mechanical thrombectomy (MT) are cost-effective treatments for ischemic stroke. However, little is known about the impact of different types of health systems (HSs) on the outcome and cost of ischemic stroke.Literature search was performed on PubMed/OVID for studies without time limits. The year of publication, type of HS, cost of intervention treatment (rTPA/MT), cost of control strategy (conservative treatment or rTPA), quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) gained, and percentage of gross domestic product spent on health were recorded. The inclusion criteria were English literature, cost-effectiveness, and cost-utility analyses. The exclusion criterion was the absence of geographic coherence between the derived QALYs and the costs. The costs were inflated to 2021 and then converted to US dollar/euro. An analysis of variance or Kruskal-Wallis test was used to compare the percentage of cost reduction and the QALYs gained. Gross domestic product percentage was correlated with the QALYs gained.Thirty-five studies were analyzed. No significant differences in the percentage of cost reduction were found among the different types of HS (Beveridge -14.74% [95% confidence interval {CI} -57.94/53.08] vs. Bismarck -2.27% [95% CI -122.73/118.18] vs. national insurance -0.015% [95% CI -16.96/51.00] vs. private insurance -4.05% [95% CI -32.62/13.18]). No differences were found in QALYs gained among the different HS (Beveridge 1021 [95% CI -36.37/1705.04] vs. Bismarck 440 [95% CI -2290.68/3870.68] vs. national insurance 643 [95% CI -137.54/2366.21] vs. private insurance 550 [95% CI 131.54/1128.06]). No differences were found among the QALYs gained between rTPA/conservative treatment versus rTPA/MT and rtPA + MT/MT. The percentage of gross domestic product spent on health did not correlate with the QALYs gained (rho = -0.16; P = 0.56).MT and rTPA are independently cost-effective among different HS. |
