Journal Article
Cost-Effectiveness of a District Trauma Hospital in Battambang, Cambodia
2008
Overview
Background
The Emergency Hospital in Battambang, Cambodia, is essentially a surgical center for victims of injuries.
Methods
Using methods previously described, operating costs were calculated, and effectiveness of treatment was estimated for 957 patients undergoing 895 surgical procedures over a 3 month period (October–December 2006).
Results
Results of the cost-effectiveness analysis are compared to the few existing ones in the literature.
Conclusion
At $77.4 per DALY averted, surgery for trauma in such a context is deemed very cost-effective and compares favorably to other non-surgical public health interventions.
