Résumé

The statistical analysis of cost-effectiveness data is becoming increasingly important within health and medical research. Statistical Analysis of Cost-Effectiveness Data provides a practical book that synthesises the huge amount of research that has taken place in the area over the last two decades.

Comprising an up-to-date overview of the statistical analysis of cost-effectiveness data, the book is supported by numerous worked examples from the author's own experience. It has been written in a style suitable for medical statisticians and health care professionals alike. Key features include:

an overview of statistical methods used in the analysis of cost-effectiveness data.
coverage of Bayesian methodology.
illustrated throughout by worked examples using real data.
suitability for health care professionals with limited statistical knowledge.
discussion of software used for data analysis.

An essential reference for biostatisticians and health economists engaged in cost-effectiveness analysis of health-care interventions, both in academia and industry. Also of interest to graduate students of biostatistics, public health and economics.
