Cost-Effectiveness of Team-Based Coaching With Surveillance for Prevention of Acute Kidney Injuries.

ABSTRACT:

Importance

More than 10% of US patients undergoing endovascular procedures experience contrast-associated acute kidney injuries (AKIs), resulting in increased costs and health deficits. Prevention protocols reduce AKIs, but uptake and adherence vary greatly, and the cost-effectiveness of these interventions is unknown.

Objective

To analyze the cost-effectiveness of 4 implementation interventions for AKI prevention in patients undergoing cardiac catheterizations.

Design, setting, and participants

This economic evaluation used a Markov decision model with 3-year horizon was constructed to simulate quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) and costs after AKI prevention protocol implementation for patients undergoing cardiac catheterization. Data from the IMPROVE AKI trial, a
