Análise de custo-efetividade em relação às terapias renais substitutivas: Como pensar estudos em relação a essas intervenções no Brasil?

Abstract

This study aims to contribute to the discussion on the possibility of applying health economics assessment, specifically the cost-effectiveness technique, to renal replacement therapies for end-stage renal failure. A review was conducted on the interventions and their alternative courses from the perspective of the various methodological proposals in the literature, considering the availability of data and information in Brazil to back this type of research.
