Patient-level costing analysis of paediatric short bowel syndrome care in a specialist tertiary centre

Methods A pilot group of patients with anatomical SBS was selected at a single specialist tertiary centre in the United Kingdom.

“…Considering all pediatric SBS-IF-patients, the total average cost of hospital-based HCRU was €221,000 for the first year and €57,000 annually. The annual cost corresponded surprisingly well with the previously observed in the United Kingdom (£52,800) ( 24 ). The costs were even higher for the early preterm patients with SBS-IF.…”
