[Clinical and cost effectiveness of percutaneous coronary intervention for patients with chronic coronary artery disease during overnight hospitalization].

AIM: To evaluate cost effectiveness of coronary endovascular treatment in patients with stable IHD during "one-night" hospitalization.

MATERIALS AND METHODS: Using the cost-minimization analysis direct medical cost of coronary endovascular treatment in patients with stable IHD during the "one-night" hospitalization was compared with the "classic" hospitalization.

RESULTS: The most cost-effective strategy for hospitalization of patients for transcutaneous coronary intervention (TCI) with stenting was the "one-night" hospitalization. Differences in direct medical costs (DMC) were statistically significant (p=0.01) in favor of the patient group hospitalized for one night.

CONCLUSION: The "one-night" hospitalization plan for patients with stable IHD to undergo TCI with stenting increases the cost-effectiveness due to the decreased number of days of stay in the hospital and the associated decrease in cost of in-patient maintenance, which resultes in considerable financial savings (Δ between the hospitalization plans was 21.2 % in favor of the "one-might" hospitalization). This Δ indicates high cost effectiveness of the selected approach.
