A prime example of this is the comparison of health-care interventions, where there is a growing expectation from policymakers that evidence supporting the cost-effectiveness of new interventions be provided along with customary data on efficacy and safety. Statistical Analysis of Cost-effectiveness Data provides an overview of the statistical methods used in such analysis and gives an illustrated summary of the key developments in statistical issues related to cost-effectiveness comparisons, over the last decade.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e Provides an up-to-date overview of statistical methods used in the analysis of cost-effectiveness data. \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Discusses all the major issues in the field, including: \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Parameter estimation for both censored and uncensored data; \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Making inference using cost-effectiveness ratios; \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Incremental net benefit plots and cost-effectiveness ratios; \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Incremental net benefit plots and cost-effectiveness acceptability curves; \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Covariate adjustment and sub-group analyses; \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Multinational trials; \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Sample size determinations using both classical and Bayesian approaches. \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Illustrated throughout by worked examples from the authors' own experiences. \u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eStatistical Analysis of Cost-effectiveness Data is ideal for biostatisticians and health economists both in academia and industry.

Willan is an academic biostatistician and clinical trial methodologist, and currently holds the positions of Senior Scientist Emeritus at SickKids Research Institute, Professor of Biostatistics in the Dalla Lana School of Public Health at the University of Toronto, and Professor Emeritus in the Department of Clinical Epidemiology and Biostatistics at McMaster University. His contributions to statistical methodology include publications in the areas of cost-effectiveness analysis, value of information methods, management trials, crossover trials, non-nested regression analysis and bivariate response models. Dr. Willan has been particularly instrumental in developing the field of statistical analysis of cost-effectiveness data with twenty peer-review articles and a book, co-authored with Professor Andy Briggs, in the Wiley Statistics in Practice series, entitled Statistical Analysis of Cost-effectiveness Data.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 212\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.69 x 9.2 x 6.45 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 01, 2006\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51756085674272,"sku":"9780470856260","price":177.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/97a4d6592809f8dc4c03eb4bb36191ca.webp?v=1780073776","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/statistical-analysis-of-cost-effective-hardcover","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
