- Abstract
Purpose: To explore the cost effectiveness of expert hand-held echo (HHE) upstream as an alternative to referral for a complete transthoracic echo (TTE) in clinical routine. We hypothized that an upstream HHE approach would prove adequate and cost effective in terms of - Decrease the numbers of required TTE - Fewer revisits to the outpatient unit - Shorten the length of admission - Increase the number of higly specialized echoes, i.e. stress echo, transesophageal echoes - Shorten the time to final diagnosis and decrease the concerns for the patient who is forced to wait for survey and results at complete TTE. Methods: In this study, a HHE scanner (V-scan, GE Health care) was kept available for the senior consultants with level 3 TTE certification, for use in patients where a TTE was indicated. HHE was performed in different clinical scenarios such in the emergency room, during consultation of inpatients or in the clinic of outpatients. The results of HHE was documented in the patient record under a heading and can directly be found upon request. The length of hospital stay during a representative week, is compared between patients who have not undergone HHE with patients undergoing HHE. Results: Out of a total of 94 patients examined with HHE, 71 patients were not in need of a complete TTE. Additional 11 patients received a more rapid investigation i.e stress-echo, transesophageal echocardiography or other investigations that would otherwise have been delayed because of waiting for the complete TTE. 12 patients were in need of a complete TTE for a more precise analysis. In the heart clinic of Danderyds hospital approximately 18 inpatients were examined with a complete TTE every ordinary week and that postpone the day of submission from hospital among approximately 6 patients a week. Every day of care in hospital cost 445 € in an ordinary ward and 981 € in the heart intensive care unit. This means there is a cost benefit of approximately 3741 € every week if it is possible to prevent this postponing of submission. Conclusions: Upstream HHE in clinical routine was in the setting of this study highly cost-effective, decreasing the need of TTE to a great extent, and leading to quicker diagnosis, shorter hospital stays and less anxiety in patients during the waiting time for a complete TTE and before a response is received.
