Screening for Hereditary Hemochromatosis in Siblings and Children of Affected Patients: A Cost-Effectiveness Analysis

15 Feb 2000

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Screening for hereditary hemochromatosis is traditionally done by using serum iron studies. However, mutation analysis of the hemochromatosis-associated HFE gene has recently become available. OBJECTIVE: To compare the cost-effectiveness of no screening with four screening strategies that incorporate HFE gene testing or serum iron studies. DESIGN: Cost-effectiveness analysis.
