Health and Economic Impact of Preventive Interventions for School Children Aimed to Improve Mental Health: Municipality perspectiveWellander, Lisa January 2014 (has links)
Psykisk ohälsa bland barn och unga är ett växande problem i Sverige. Kommunen bär den största samhällskostnaden för ett barn under uppväxten och därför är det extra viktigt att ta reda på hur resurser kan omfördelas i samhället för att gynna barns hälsa. Syftet med studien var att visa hur en investering i preventiva insatser kan förbättra barns psykiska hälsa och samtidigt spara på samhällets resurser. Kommunal statistik visar att barn i skolan som är i behov av särskilt stöd på grund av depression/ångest, ADHD och psykosocial problematik får insatser så som stöd från elevassistent, lärare eller placerad i särskild undervisningsgrupp. Kostnader för dessa insatser varierar mellan 4424-26000 kronor per barn och månad. Dessa kostnader kan ställas i relation till kostnader för universella preventiva skolprogram som har en bevisad positiv effekt på barns psykiska hälsa, vars driftskostnader för en hel intervention som mest är 1097 kronor per barn. Analysen visar att en omfördelning av resurserna till preventiva interventioner, såsom skolprogram, kan vara en lyckosam satsning för kommunen, både ekonomiskt och hälsomässigt då det kan förbättra barns psykiska hälsa men också leda till samhällsbesparingar. / Children’s mental ill-health is a growing public health problem in Sweden and for the municipality, being an important financial actor during a child’s upbringing, it is crucial to put resources where they give positive effect on the problem. The overall aim of the study is to describe how investing in prevention programs at children’s schools can improve children’s mental health and reduce the societal costs. Municipality statistics show that children in need of special support in school because of depression/anxiety, ADHD and psychosocial problems receive actions such as personal assistant, teacher or placed in a special education group. The cost of these actions varies between 4424-26000 Swedish krona [SEK] per child and month. These costs can be put in relation to preventive universal school interventions that have the highest cost of 1097 SEK per child and have a proven effect on child mental health. The analysis shows that preventing child mental ill-health can save societal costs and provide a healthier life for children compared to the current standard practice of targeting the children’s problems only after they have occurred.

Previous issue date: 2010 / Mestrado Acadêmico em Ciências do Cuidado em Saúde / Este estudo objetivou avaliar os custos e consequências do tratamento da pseudartrose com aplicação de células-tronco. A metodologia correspondeu à avaliação econômica parcial do
custo e das consequências desse tratamento. O cenário do estudo foi o Hospital Universitário
Antonio Pedro e os sujeitos foram oito pacientes operados entre setembro de 2008 e maio de
2009. A perspectiva do estudo foi a do Sistema Único de Saúde, principal fonte de financiamento da assistência médica no Brasil. Para o tratamento estatístico dos dados foram
utilizados o software STATISTICA 6.0 e o teste não paramétrico de Spearman. A análise
estatística apresentou resultados satisfatórios dentro de uma margem aceitável. O custo total
médio do tratamento foi de R$ 1243.199 e o tempo de consolidação foi em média 14.71429
semanas. Observamos através do teste não paramétrico de Spearman que a correlação entre o custo total e o tempo de consolidação é - 0, 5078, uma indicação fraca de que o custo total é inversamente proporcional ao tempo de consolidação. A partir deste estudo, podemos concluir que o custo com o tratamento não foram exorbitantes. O pequeno tamanho da amostra não afetou os resultados de forma significativa, sendo que os achados em relação à idade são parecidos com os de outros estudos, o que nos leva a concluir que a população acometida pela pseudartrose é a economicamente ativa. A criação de um protocolo foi primordial para o levantamento do custo com o tratamento, possibilitando a consolidação dos dados e nos permitindo visualizar de forma mais abrangente o tratamento. O tempo de consolidação foi igual aos melhores resultados vistos em estudo internacionais e o procedimento se mostrou
seguro e eficaz. Constatamos que o questionário SF36 é um instrumento de fácil aplicação e foi de confiabilidade no acompanhamento ambulatorial de pacientes submetidos ao
tratamento. / The purpose of this study was to evaluate the costs and consequences of the use of stem cells
in the treatment of pseudarthrosis. The methodology involved a partial economic assessment of the cost and consequences of this treatment. The study scenario was the Hospital
Universitário Antonio Pedro and the subjects were eight patients operated between September 2008 and May 2009. The study perspective was that of the Sistema Único de Saúde, the main financial resource for medical assistance in Brazil. Statistical treatment of the data was performed using the STATISTICA 6.0 application and the Spearman nonparametric test. The results were statistically significant within an acceptable margin of error. The average treatment cost was R$ 1.247,21 and the average time for consolidation was 12.875 weeks.
The Spearman nonparametric test showed that the correlation between the total cost and the
time for was -0.25, a weak indication that the total cost is inversely proportional to the time
for consolidation. From this study, we can conclude that the treatment costs were not
prohibitive. The small size of the sample had no significant influence on the results; the agerelated findings are similar to those of other studies and lead to the conclusion that population affected by pseudarthrosis is economically active. The creation of a protocol was essential for cost evaluation, providing a framework for data consolidation and yielding a more general view of the treatment. The time for consolidation was about the same as for the best results reported in the international literature and the procedure was observed to be safe and effective. We concluded that the SF36 questionnaire is an easily applied tool that can be reliably used in the post-treatment follow-up of the patients.
