The reduction of the productivity burden of cardiovascular disease by improving the risk factor control Among Australians with type 2 diabetes: a 10-year dynamic analysis
Authors' conclusion
Targeted 'early lifestyle' strategies that can prevent CVD in Australians with type 2 diabetes are likely to positively impact Australian health and work productivity.
Study context
- Population
- Australians with T2DM aged 40–69 years, 2023–2032
- Comparison
- Improved cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factor control scenarios vs base-case
- Outcome
- Productivity burden of CVD (PALYs lost; GDP lost)
- Follow-up
- 2023-2032
Methodological detailsdynamic model, hypothetical scenarios, 5% annual discounting, PALYs valued at gross domestic product (GDP) per full-time worker (AU$204 167 (€124 542))
- Dynamic model
- Hypothetical scenarios
- 5% annual discounting
- PALYs valued at GDP per full-time worker (AU$204 167 (€124 542))
Main finding
As reported in the abstract
PALYs lost due to CVD and GDP lost (base-case)
| Group | PALYs lost | GDP lost |
|---|---|---|
| Base-case | 1.21 million [95%CI (1.10-1.29 million)] | AU$258.93 (€157.94) billion [95%CI (AU$258.73-261.69 (€157.83-159.63) billion)] |
