Full-term knee brace costs, QALYs gained and ICER
| Costs (£) (CI 95%) | QALYs gained (CI 95%) | Change in Costs (£) (CI 95%) | Change in QALYs (CI 95%) | ICER (£) | |
| Unloader knee brace | 625 (622 to 628) | 0.435 (0.255 to 0.615) | −123 (−414 to 168) | 0.019 (−0.103 to 0.141) | −6467 |
| TKR | 749 (456 to 1041) | 0.416 (0.252 to 0.581) |
*Unloader knee brace dominates TKR.
ICER, incremental cost-effectiveness ratio; TKR, total knee replacement; QALY, quality-adjusted life year.
