Cost-effectiveness Analysis of Vascular Access Referral Policies in CKD
Background The optimal timing of vascular access referral for patients with chronic kidney disease who may need hemodialysis (HD) is a pressing question in nephrology. Current referral policies have not been rigorously compared with respect to costs and benefits and do not consider patient-specific...

Setting & Population Patients with chronic kidney disease, referred to a multidisciplinary kidney clinic in a universal health care system. Model, Perspective, & Timeframe Cost-effectiveness analysis, payer perspective, lifetime horizon. Intervention The following vascular access referral policies are considered: central venous catheter (CVC) only, arteriovenous fistula (AVF) or graft (AVG) referral upon HD initiation, AVF (or AVG) referral when HD is forecast to begin within 12 (or 3 for AVG) months, AVF (or AVG) referral when estimated glomerular filtration rate is <15 (or <10 for AVG) mL/min/1.73 m2. Outcomes Incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICERs, in 2014 US dollars per quality-adjusted life-year [QALY] gained). Results The ICER of AVF (AVG) referral within 12 (3) months of forecasted HD initiation, compared to using only a CVC, is ∼$105k/QALY ($101k/QALY) at a population level (HD costs included). Pre-HD AVF or AVG referral dominates delaying referral until HD initiation. The ICER of pre-HD referral increases with patient age. Results are most sensitive to erythropoietin costs, ongoing HD costs, and patients’ utilities for HD. When ongoing HD costs are excluded from the analysis, pre-HD AVF dominates both pre-HD AVG and CVC-only policies. Limitations Literature-based estimates for HD, AVF, and AVG utilities are limited. Conclusions The cost-effectiveness of vascular access referral is largely driven by the annual costs of HD, erythropoietin costs, and access-specific utilities. Further research is needed in the field of dialysis-related quality of life to inform decision making regarding vascular access referral.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0272-6386</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1523-6838</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1053/j.ajkd.2017.04.020</identifier><identifier>PMID: 28599902</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>United States: Elsevier Inc</publisher><subject>arteriovenous fistula (AVF) ; arteriovenous graft (AVG) ; Arteriovenous Shunt, Surgical - instrumentation ; Arteriovenous Shunt, Surgical - methods ; Arteriovenous Shunt, Surgical - psychology ; central venous catheter (CVC) ; chronic kidney disease (CKD) ; Cost-Benefit Analysis ; cost-effectiveness ; end-stage renal disease (ESRD) ; health care costs ; hemodialysis ; Humans ; Kidney Failure, Chronic - economics ; Kidney Failure, Chronic - psychology ; Kidney Failure, Chronic - therapy ; Monte Carlo Method ; Nephrology ; predialysis care ; Quality-Adjusted Life Years ; Referral and Consultation - economics ; Referral and Consultation - organization & administration ; Renal Dialysis - economics ; Renal Dialysis - instrumentation ; Renal Dialysis - methods ; United States ; Vascular access ; Vascular Access Devices - economics ; vascular access referral</subject><ispartof>American journal of kidney diseases, 2017-09, Vol.70 (3), p.368-376</ispartof><rights>National Kidney Foundation, Inc.</rights><rights>2017 National Kidney Foundation, Inc.</rights><rights>Copyright © 2017 National Kidney Foundation, Inc.
