Évaluation économique de la cyphoplastie

One hundred and two patients were enrolled in our study: 61% with vertebral compression fractures due to osteoporosis, 22% due to trauma and 17% due to malignant disease. The patient stays are distributed in 17 DRG, with an average length of stay of 9.4 ± 10.0 days. For every hospitalization stays, the hospital gets 3740 ± 2611 €. The average spendings are estimated at 9033 € by the analytical accounting, at 7679 € by DRG, at 7679 € by DRG adaptated to the mean time of the hospitalization. The average costs of products by procedure are 3930 €, that is 105% of the hospitals receipts. For each kyphoplasty these receipts are not high enough to balance the hospital's book.
