Dimensions influencing the "intangible value" | Comparison between effects of two treatment options | Results based on scientific result or consensus |
---|---|---|
Absolute Risk Reduction [ARR] | ARR>40%:10 pts; 39-25%: 9.9-9.0 pts; 24-15%: 8.9-8.0 pts, 14-10%: 7.9-7.0 pts; 9-5%: 6.9-6.0 pts; ARR<5%: 5 pts | Absolute risk reduction (ARR) = 14% 7.6 points |
Validity [V] | Validity (multiplier for not impaired validity = 1.00, for seriously impaired validity = 0.10) | Subjectively determined validity factor: 0.90 |
Type of expected effectiveness [TEE] | Type of expected effectiveness (TEE) (multiplier for prevention of: death = 10.0; life-threatening event = 9.9-9.0; considerable disability = 8.9-7.0; dis-ability = 6.9-4.0; disturbance in well-being = 3.9-1.0 | Subjectively determined type of exp. effectiveness (TEE) = 9.2 |
Intangible value (product of ARR score) × (validity factor) × (TEE) | Intangible value = 7.6 points × 0.90 × 9.2 = 62.9 points |
