Quality of life and health-related utility after trans-oral surgery for head and neck cancers

Abstract Purpose The purpose of this study was to assess utility coefficients of health states following two minimally invasive surgical approaches for head and neck cancer, namely trans-oral robotic surgery and trans-oral laser microsurgery. Those utility coefficients will be later exploited in an...

Those utility coefficients will be later exploited in an economic evaluation study comparing the two approaches. Methods The above cited economic evaluation will be done from the Swiss healthcare system perspective and, as such, Swiss healthcare professionals were interviewed to elicit utility coefficients. Health states, ranging from remission to palliative care, were described using clinical vignettes. A computerized tool (UceWeb) implementing standard gamble and rating scale methods was used. Results Utility coefficients for 18 different health states were elicited with the two methods from 47 individuals, for a total of 1692 values. Elicited values varied from 0.980 to 0.213. Comparison with values elicited in previous studies show the need for population-specific elicitation, mainly for the worst health states. Conclusion Herein we report health utility coefficients for the Swiss population for health states following minimally invasive trans-oral surgery. This study provides utility values that can be used not only for a specific cost-utility analysis, but also for future studies involving the same health states.Enea ParimbelliChristian SimonFederico SoldatiLorry DuchoudGian Luca ArmasJohn R. de AlmeidaSilvana QuagliniBMCarticleCost-utility analysisUtility elicitationHead & neck cancerStandard gambleRating scaleComputer applications to medicine.
