Table 2.
Intervention | DALYs per person | DALYs averted per person | Net cost per person | Costs added per person | ICER vs. prior table entry |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Antivenom + supportive care | 1.23 | – | $1,046 | – | – |
Antivenom/adjunct + supportive care | 0.95 | 0.28 | $1,065 | $19 | $68 |
DALY = disability-adjusted life year; ICER = incremental cost-effectiveness ratio. At base-case values, the antivenom only strategy resulted in a total cost per person of $1,046 and the antivenom/adjunct strategy resulted in a total cost per person of $1,065 (an increased investment of $19 per person).
