Abstract

BACKGROUND

Heart transplantation is an established treatment for end-stage heart failure patients, but its cost-effectiveness is under question.

OBJECTIVE

This study aimed to assess the cost of heart transplantation in Iran as a developing country in Asia to contribute to future planning in the region.

METHODS

This study was conducted in two phases. First, in a retrospective multicenter study, hospital data of heart transplant and hospitalization of three active heart transplant centers in Tehran, Iran, were reviewed from April 2013 to May 2015. Then pre-transplantation, transplantation, and one-year posttransplant costs were calculated according to the ABC (activity-based costing) method in 2016.

RESULTS

Data were obtained for 120 patients, among which 95 (79.17%) were males with a mean (SD) age of 35.31±13.41 years. Mean (SD) hospital and ICU length of stay were 17.85±14.91 and 9.74±8.94 days, respectively. A significant correlation existed between the mean of hospital and ICU length of stay (P<0.001, r: 0.754). The mean heart transplant and hospitalization cost was 3445.47±1243.29 USD from 2013 to 2015. Using the activity-based costing method, the cost of pre-transplantation, transplantation, and one-year -post-transplantation were extracted 6.5%, 73.5%, and 20%, respectively, with a total cost of 26232 USD.

CONCLUSION

Compared to other countries, the cost of heart transplantation in Iran is very low. Numerous reasons lead to this difference. Firstly, a heart transplantation surgery is performed in university-based hospitals and is supported by the government. On the other hand, a significant difference exists between personnel costs in Iran compared to other countries.

摘要

背景

心脏移植是终末期心力衰竭患者的既定治疗方法，但其成本效益受到质疑。

目的

本研究旨在评估作为亚洲发展中国家的伊朗心脏移植的成本，以为该地区未来规划提供参考。

方法

本研究分两个阶段进行。首先，在一项回顾性多中心研究中，回顾了2013年4月至2015年5月伊朗德黑兰三个活跃心脏移植中心的心脏移植和住院医院数据。然后在2016年根据作业成本法计算移植前、移植和移植后一年的成本。

结果

获取了120例患者的数据，其中95例（79.17%）为男性，平均（标准差）年龄为35.31±13.41岁。平均（标准差）住院时间和重症监护病房住院时间分别为17.85±14.91天和9.74±8.94天。住院时间和重症监护病房住院时间的平均值之间存在显著相关性（P<0.001，r：0.754）。2013年至2015年心脏移植和住院的平均成本为3445.47±1243.29美元。使用作业成本法，移植前、移植和移植后一年的成本分别为6.5%、73.5%和20%，总成本为26232美元。
