Rotavirus is the leading cause of acute gastroenteritis in children. In the United Kingdom, it causes significant short-term morbidity, and places a substantial burden on the health service. Two rotavirus vaccines have completed clinical trials and are being considered for routine infant vaccination. We investigated the cost-effectiveness of a universal immunisation programme in the United Kingdom, in order to inform the decision of whether to add one of the vaccines to the national vaccine schedule. A cohort model was constructed to compare the costs and outcomes of vaccination. Direct and indirect costs were considered separately. From the health care provider's perspective, the cost of rotavirus-related hospital admissions, nosocomial hospital infections, Accident and Emergency admissions, GP consultations and calls to a telephone health information service (NHS Direct) were considered. We also considered loss in quality adjusted life years (QALYs) for patients and their carers due to fatal and non-fatal episodes of rotavirus gastroenteritis. The economic value of lost productivity for those caring for children with rotavirus was also taken into consideration. Results of the model showed that the cost per QALY of an immunisation programme varied considerably depending on the perspective taken. Including QALY losses to carers had the effect of decreasing the cost effectiveness ratio by 56%, while including productivity losses in carers resulted in an additional 8% decrease. This has important implications for evaluating other childhood vaccines such as the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine. Similar results and influences were observed for other European countries, and will also be discussed.

"The Guide, in Part I, begins with a brief description of generalized CEA and how it relates to the two questions raised above. It then considers issues relating to study design, estimating costs, assessing health effects, discounting, uncertainty and sensitivity analysis, and reporting results. Detailed discussions of selected technical issues and applications are provided in a series of background papers, originally published in journals, but included in this book for easy reference in Part II."

Mathematics plays an important role in many scientific and engineering disciplines. This book deals with the numerical solution of differential equations, a very important branch of mathematics. Our aim is to give a practical and theoretical account of how to solve a large variety of differential equations, comprising ordinary differential equations, initial value problems and boundary value problems, differential algebraic equations, partial differential equations and delay differential equations. The solution of differential equations using R is the main focus of this book. It is therefore intended for the practitioner, the student and the scientist, who wants to know how to use R for solving differential equations. However, it has been our goal that non-mathematicians should at least understand the basics of the methods, while obtaining entrance into the relevant literature that provides more mathematical background. Therefore, each chapter that deals with R examples is preceded by a chapter where the theory behind the numerical methods being used is introduced. In the sections that deal with the use of R for solving differential equations, we have taken examples from a variety of disciplines, including biology, chemistry, physics, pharmacokinetics. Many examples are well-known test examples, used frequently in the field of numerical analysis.

Vaccines have made it possible to eradicate the scourge of smallpox, promise the same for polio, and have profoundly reduced the threat posed by other diseases such as whooping cough, measles, and meningitis. What is next? There are many pathogens, autoimmune diseases, and cancers that may be promising targets for vaccine research and development. This volume provides an analytic framework and quantitative model for evaluating disease conditions that can be applied by those setting priorities for vaccine development over the coming decades. The committee describes an approach for comparing potential new vaccines based on their impact on morbidity and mortality and on the costs of both health care and vaccine development. The book examines: Lessons to be learned from the polio experience. Scientific advances that set the stage for new vaccines. Factors that affect how vaccines are used in the population. Value judgments and ethical questions raised by comparison of health needs and benefits. The committee provides a way to compare different forms of illness and set vaccine priorities without assigning a monetary value to lives. Their recommendations will be important to anyone involved in science policy and public health planning: policymakers, regulators, health care providers, vaccine manufacturers, and researchers.
