Economic evaluation of surgery compared with pharmacological treatment for patients diagnosed with gonarthrosis
Hájková, Kateřina ; Lešetický, Ondřej (advisor)
The main purpose of my diploma thesis is the application of economic evaluation principles; costs quantification and the consequences quantification of two different approaches in the gonarthrosis therapy from the perspective of Health Insurance Company and from the perspective of the patient; furthermore the evaluation of the effectiveness and utility ratio and the final determination for more convenient option. Considered alternatives are the hyaluronic acid injection and the total knee arthroplasty realization. Effects for the expenditures at cost-effectiveness analysis are measured by WOMAC Index. Effects for the expenditures at cost-utility analysis are measured by HUI2 score system. The research includes two sections: (1) the case study of two patients and (2) the clinical trials and nationwide Health Insurance Company´s data analysis. Particularly because of the brief observation time period, the pharmacotherapy is quantified as a more convenient alternative.
Cost effectiveness analysis of measures leading to the reduction of eutrophication in the catchment of the Orlik Reservoir
Macháč, Jan ; Slavíková, Lenka (advisor) ; Vojáček, Ondřej (referee)
The growing demand for clean water has led to the adoption of the EU Water Framework Directive (Directive 2000/60 EC). New legislation has a major impact on the water management and the national economy and provides numerous requirements, including "good status" of all water bodies. The Framework Directive also implies the need for an economic analysis of the optimal process to achieve good status by using the cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA). The application of this method in water management is struggling with a number of methodological complications. One of the affected areas in the Czech Republic is the catchment of the Orlik Reservoir that faces excessive eutrophication. Eutrophication is caused by excessive introduction of phosphorus. The main sources of phosphorus are municipal wastewater, aquaculture and agriculture. As illustrated by professional research mentioned in this work and the actual processing of CEA of the catchment of the Orlik Reservoir, a wide range of methodological problems can be avoided by using appropriate tools. This thesis also presents that achieving of good status of the catchment would require annual cost of CZK 602 million. The most significant cost bearers are according to the CEA fisheries and municipalities.
Economic analysis of energy storage devices contained in EFSI 2015-2017
Kůt, Petr ; Macháč, Jan (advisor) ; Vojáček, Ondřej (referee)
As a result of support of renewable energy sources in Europe the fluctuations in electricity production occurs and threaten the stability of the electrification network. For this reason, we can monitor growing demand for technology solutions that are able to effectively eliminate these fluctuations. Devices for storing electrical energy appears suitable. This thesis deals with the economic analysis of the projected facilities in the Czech Republic that have applied for support from the European Fund for Strategic Investment (EFSI), compared to other model devices. As part of the work there was used method of cost-effectiveness analysis to evaluate various technology solutions based on the ability to provide ancillary services. Consequently on the results of thesis we can say the most cost-effective project is under current conditions, construction equipment storage technology using compressed air CAES located at Dolní Rožinka included in EFSI 2015-2017.
