Conditions of the spine are one of the most prevalent causes of global disability, and result in a considerable portion of total health expenditures. Surgical treatment of the spine has been demonstrated in multiple studies to be a cost-effective treatment option for many patients, especially with continuing improvements in surgical technique and instrumentation. Minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS), in particular, has evolved as a valuable option in treating certain patients. Numerous studies have analyzed minimally invasive techniques in regards to cost-effectiveness and other purported advantages. These advantages include conduciveness to outpatient settings, better perioperative and immediate post-operative benefits, and faster time to recovery. This article will describe the current literature on the advantages of MISS, specifically in regards to value and cost savings.
脊柱疾病是导致全球残疾的最常见原因之一,在总医疗支出中占相当大的比例。多项研究表明,脊柱手术对许多患者来说是一种具有成本效益的治疗选择,尤其是随着手术技术和器械的不断改进。特别是,微创脊柱手术(MISS)已成为治疗某些患者的一种有价值的选择。许多研究分析了微创技术在成本效益和其他所谓优势方面的情况。这些优势包括适合门诊治疗、更好的围手术期和术后即刻效果,以及更快的恢复时间。本文将介绍当前关于微创脊柱手术优势的文献,特别是在价值和成本节约方面。
