Analysis of one-year follow-up results and treatment costs of patients with PTE in a tertiary care center
Introduction: Pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) is a life-threatening disease, with substantial treatment-related complications, difficult follow-up, treatment compliance, and high costs. This study aimed to assess treatment costs with various maintenance therapy regimens, complications, and patient adherence to treatment over a one-year follow-up period.
Materials and Methods: This observational, prospective study included 142 patients with PTE who received maintenance anticoagulation therapy between November 2020 and March 2023. The patients were observed at three-month intervals for a year. Possible treatment-related complications, recurrence, mortality, and treatment costs were recorded.
Result: Our results showed that there was no significant difference in bleeding risk based on the drugs used for initial or maintenance treatment. In maintenance therapy, low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH), warfarin, and direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) treatment regimens had similar treatment adherence and comparable efficacy and safety in terms of recurrence and bleeding (p> 0.05). Four patients (2.8%) were diagnosed with chronic thromboembolic disease. The one-year mortality rate was 24.6% (n= 35), of which 82.9% (n= 29) occurred within the first three months. Hospital mortality rates with the different maintenance therapies were 8.8% in the LMWH group, 5.7% in the warfarin group, and 3.2% in the DOAC group. The annual cost of using LMWH was higher than that of rivaroxaban, apixaban, and warfarin (p< 0.001) while there was no significant cost difference between DOACs and warfarin (p> 0.05).
Conclusions: In our study, the LMWH, warfarin, and DOAC treatment regimens had similar efficacy, safety, and patient compliance. In terms of cost, LMWH was the costliest while DOAC and warfarin were similar.
