Fig. 3From: Cost-effectiveness analysis of single use negative pressure wound therapy dressings (sNPWT) compared to standard of care in reducing surgical site complications (SSC) in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting surgeryCost-effectiveness plane for sNPWT compared to standard care in patients following CABG surgery. The cost-effectiveness plane shows results of the probabilistic sensitivity analysis for the two interventions sNPWT and SC. Each point on the plot corresponds to one trial in the Monte-Carlo simulation (2000 simulations were conducted) comparing the incremental effectiveness and incremental costs of sNPWT compared to SC. Costs for sNPWT were consistently lower (read on the y-axis) and effectiveness highest (read on the x-axis) for the SSC prevention following CABG compared to SC. The figure therefore shows that sNPWT is cost-savingBack to article page
