Cost-Utility Analysis of Planned Early Delivery or Expectant Management for Late Preterm Pre-eclampsia (PHOENIX).

ABSTRACT:

Aim

There is currently limited evidence on the costs associated with late preterm pre-eclampsia beyond antenatal care and post-natal discharge from hospital. The aim of this analysis is to evaluate the 24-month cost-utility of planned delivery for women with late preterm pre-eclampsia at 34⁺⁰-36⁺⁶ weeks' gestation compared to expectant management from an English National Health Service perspective using participant-level data from the PHOENIX trial.

Methods

Women between 34⁺⁰ and 36⁺⁶ weeks' gestation in 46 maternity units in England and Wales were individually randomised to planned delivery or expectant management. Resource use was collected from hospital records between randomisation and primary hospital discharge following birth
