BONESUPPORT™, an emerging leader in orthobiologics for the management of bone injuries, today announces that a cost-effectiveness analysis of CERAMENT G was presented at the leading health economic conference ISPOR Europe 2022 on 7 November 2022. The analysis shows that a single-stage protocol with CERAMENT G is a cost-effective strategy to treat bone infection compared to the standard of care in the United States.
When using CERAMENT G instead of antibiotic-loaded PMMA beads, cost reductions are estimated to be USD27,943 on average per patient due to less surgeries and intra- and post-surgical complications. The analysis also shows improved patient quality of life. Greater cost reductions were found compared to other multi-stage protocols to manage bone infection.
The study is based on a health economic model developed to compare healthcare costs benefits from a third-party payer perspective between CERAMENT G and two groups of multi-stage protocols, one of which included antibiotic-loaded PMMA beads. The model simulated one million patients over a two-year horizon from the time they received surgery for bone infection.
“Reducing the number of surgeries in the management of bone infection is a win for patients, hospitals, and society,” said Emil Billbäck, CEO of BONESUPPORT.
