PY - 2015 DA - 2015/04/22 TI - Acute and chronic impact of cardiovascular events on health state utilities JO - BMC Health Services Research SP - 173 VL - 15 IS - 1 AB - Cost-utility models are frequently used to compare treatments intended to prevent or delay the onset of cardiovascular events. Most published utilities represent post-event health states without incorporating the disutility of the event or reporting the time between the event and utility assessment. Therefore, this study estimated health state utilities representing cardiovascular conditions while distinguishing between acute impact including the cardiovascular event and the chronic post-event impact.
