Although a few health-economic studies have been conducted, summary information on the cost-effectiveness is still scarce.<h4>Objective</h4>To give an overview of cost-effectiveness analyses (CEA) focusing on non-pharmacological/non-surgical interventions in PD patients.<h4>Methods</h4>A systematic literature search was conducted in five databases. Studies were included that provided cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) or cost-utility analysis (CUA) of non-pharmacological/non-surgical interventions in PD patients. Study quality was assessed with the Drummond and CHEERS 2022 checklists, respectively for economic evaluation.<h4>Results</h4>N = 9 studies published between 2012-2023 were identified. Most studies undertook a CUA (n = 5); n = 3 reported a combination of CEA and CUA, and n = 1 a pure CEA. Most studies (n = 6) examined physical exercise. The CEA studies identified additional costs of 170€ -660€  for the improvement of one single unit of a clinical outcome and savings of 18.40€ -22.80€  per score gained as measured with established instruments. The four studies that found significant quality of life benefits show large variations in the incremental cost effectiveness ratio (ICER) of 3,220€ -214,226€  per quality-adjusted life year (QALY); notably interventions were heterogenous regarding content and intensity.<h4>Conclusions</h4>Despite increasing numbers of non-pharmacological/non-surgical intervention trials in PD patients, health-economic evaluations are rare. The examined intervention types and health-economic results vary greatly. Together with the heterogeneity of the health-economic studies these factors limit the conclusions that can be drawn. Further research and a standardization of methods is needed to allow decision makers to make meaningful interpretations, and to allocate scarce resources."],"journal":["Journal of Parkinson's disease"],"pagination":["S241-S252"],"full_dataset_link":["https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC11380296"],"repository":["biostudies-literature"],"pubmed_title":["Cost-Effectiveness Analyses of Non-Pharmacological and Non-Surgical Interventions in Idiopathic Parkinson's Disease: A Systematic Review."],"pmcid":["PMC11380296"],"pubmed_authors":["Folkerts AK","Kalbe E","Hartmann-Nardin D","Stock S"],"additional_accession":[]},"is_claimable":false,"name":"Cost-Effectiveness Analyses of Non-Pharmacological and Non-Surgical Interventions in Idiopathic Parkinson's Disease: A Systematic Review.","description":"<h4>Background</h4>Interest in non-pharmacological/non-surgical interventions to treat Parkinson's disease (PD) has substantially increased.
