Economic evaluation of Chagas disease screening of pregnant Latin American women and of their infants in a non endemic area
چکیده انگلیسی
► We modeled the economic evaluation of Chagas disease screening, and consequent treatment, of pregnant women from Latin America and, in case these are positive, of their newborns, in a non endemic area such as Spain. ► “Screening” resulted to be the most cost-effective strategy compared to “non-screening”. ► This result remained constant even with a substantial rise in screening costs and with a drop in the prevalence of the infection among pregnant women and in the probability of vertical transmission.
