| Description |
Aim of this study is to operate a pharmaeconomical evaluation on case histories of patients affected by chronic bronchitis relapse, comparing the effectiveness of different molecules with antibiotic activity and the total cost far each considered drogo. The observational retrospective study has been conducted at the Bronchopncumology Depaliment of the E. Morelli Hospital (Reggio Calabria) on 344 patients aftècted by acute infective or chronic relapsed bronchopneumopaties between January, the 1st, 1997 and December, the 31th 1999. To avoid excessive data dispersal, the study considered only the active principles prescribed to at least 50 persons: ceftazidime, ceftriaxone, cefepime and piperacilline + tazobactam. AlI the patients have responded positively to the treatment, so the cost minimization analysis has been carried out far every dosage regimen, considering different parameters: nursing staff costs, consumable material and drug costs. The Prescribed Daily Dose (PDD) has been taken as unit of measurement for drug costs. The single adminstration cost is based on nursing costs and consumable material costs. To get the total therapy cost, it’s necessary to add the single administration drug costo. In this study, the lowest total cost is guaranteed by treatment with ceftriaxone.
