The Burden of Disease of Treatment‐Seeking Patients With a Cluster‐C Personality Disorder in the Netherlands; Quality of Life, Functioning, and Societal Costs
Cluster‐C personality disorders (PDs) are common in the general population but often overlooked in scientific research and clinical practice. An important step to increase awareness for timely diagnosis and treatment of cluster‐C PDs is to investigate the burden of disease in terms of quality of life (QoL), daily functioning and the associated costs to society. In addition, a comparison between these patients and a control group can give insight …
Effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of an online transdiagnostic positive psychology intervention for patients awaiting mental health treatment and their loved ones
NL-OMON57370. Registered in the Overview of Medical Research in the Netherlands on 17 March 2025
Clinical effectiveness, cost-effectiveness and process evaluation of group schema therapy for eating disorders
clinicaltrials.gov (NCT05812950)
The societal burden associated with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis
AIS negatively impacts societal costs and the HRQoL. Reducing the burden that is posed on the productivity sector by AIS and further improving the HRQoL for AIS patients is needed
Designing and testing of a health-economic Markov model to assess the cost-effectiveness of treatments for Bipolar disorder
TiBipoMod can easily be adapted and used to determine the cost-effectiveness of interventions in the treatment in Bipolar Disorder type I and II, and is freely available for academic purposes upon request at the authors
Comparison of preferences of healthcare professionals and MS patients for attributes of disease‐modifying drugs
BACKGROUND: The choice between disease-modifying drugs (DMDs) for the treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS) becomes more often a shared decision between the patient and the neurologist and MS nurse. This study aimed to assess which DMD attributes are most important for the healthcare professionals in selecting a DMD for a patient. Subsequently, within this perspective, the neurologists' and nurses' perspectives were compared. Lastly, the healthcar…
Varying Opinions on Who Deserves Collectively Financed Health Care Services
In Europe, health insurance arrangements are under reform. These arrangements redistribute collectively financed resources to ensure access to health care for all. Allocation of health services is historically based on medical needs, but use of other criteria, such as lifestyle, is debated upon. Does the general public also have preferences for conditional allocation? This depends on their opinions regarding deservingness. The aim of this study w…
Dutch Tariff for the Five-Level Version of EQ-5D
BACKGROUND: In 2009, a new version of the EuroQol five-dimensional questionnaire (EQ-5D) was introduced with five rather than three answer levels per dimension. This instrument is known as the EQ-5D-5L. To make the EQ-5D-5L suitable for use in economic evaluations, societal values need to be attached to all 3125 health states. OBJECTIVES: To derive a Dutch tariff for the EQ-5D-5L. METHODS: Health state values were elicited during face-to-face int…
Economic evaluation of brief sex counseling for sexually dysfunctional adolescents
Objectives: In a randomized controlled trial brief sex counselling (BSC), intensive sexual healthcare (ISH) and no treatment (NT) for adolescents with a sexual dysfunction were compared. The aim of this study was to assess the cost-effectiveness and cost-utility of BSC versus ISH and NT from a societal perspective. Methods: Costs, sexual functioning and quality of life were measured during 6 months. Primary outcome measures were measured with the…
Exploring psychometric properties of the SF-6D, a preference-based health-related quality of life measure, in the context of spinal cord injury
Productivity cost calculations in health economic evaluations
Discrepancy in rating health-related quality of life of depression between patient and general population
There are discrepancies in the valuation of a hypothetical depression health state between a patient and general population, whereby depression leads to a worse valuation. But also within the patient population, the valuation differs according to depression severity and duration. Identification with the hypothetical health state description might explain the varying differences found between subgroups for the different hypothetical health state d…
Modeling the Value for Money of Changing Clinical Practice Change
BACKGROUND: Decision making about resource allocation for guideline implementation to change clinical practice is inevitably undertaken in a context of uncertainty surrounding the cost-effectiveness of both clinical guidelines and implementation strategies. Adopting a total net benefit approach, a model was recently developed to overcome problems with the use of combined ratio statistics when analyzing decision uncertainty. OBJECTIVE: To demonstr…
