[Cost-effectiveness analysis of cardiovascular disease prevention: a graded list as aid to the rational distribution of resources].
In a study designed to compare the cost-effectiveness of three cardiovascular disease prevention programmes, subject to a defined budget, a population was subgrouped according to risk levels. Cost per year of life saved and annual budget expenditure were calculated for each subgroup. Budget expenditure was defined in terms of current direct costs. A ranked list was constructed, and the cut-off level of 'acceptable' cost-effectiveness elicited.
