Overview

Although ARDS is a serious medical condition associated with a very high mortality rate, the application of evidence-based therapies (e.g., lower tidal volume mechanical ventilation) have been shown to be cost-effective.

Cost-effectiveness of therapy

Although ICU-level care can be very costly, the use of low tidal volume mechanical ventilation appears to be cost-effective:

  • When the probability of surviving at least 2 months was > 70%, the cost per quality-adjusted life year (QALY) was $29,000
  • When the probability of surviving at least 2 months was 51 to 70%, the cost per QALY was $44,000
  • When the probability of surviving at least 2 months was < 50%, the cost per QALY was $110,000
