  1. Decision Modeling Techniques HINF 371 - Medical Methodologies Session 3

  2. Objective • To review decision modeling techniques and discuss their use in healthcare decision making

  3. Reading • Roberts M S and Sonnenberg F A (2000) Chapter 2: Decision Modeling Techniques, in Chapman G B and Sonnenberg F A (eds) Decision Making In Health Care: Theory, Psychology and Applications, Cambridge University Press, USA,

  4. Evidence Preparation Engine where data is translated into information

  5. Why do we need them? • To create a quantitative representation of clinical choices • To compare alternatives and results of choices • To integrate data from various sources to describe a clinical situation • To simulate trial results to the whole population

  6. Requirements for a Decision Model • Perspective: identification of whose perspective has been used to develop the model • Context: who is involved, what conditions, what interventions • Complexity (or granularity): what should be the level of detail • Time horizon

  7. Simple Decision Tree Chance Node Outcome 1 Value 1 (U1) p1 Choice 1 Decision Node p2 Outcome 2 Value 2 (U2) Total = 1 Outcome 3 Value 3 (U3) p3 Choice 2 p4 Outcome 4 Value 4 (U4)

  11. Test + LERx p1 HIV+ Test - p2 LETox Test + LE LateRx p3 HIV- Test - p4 LE Sensitivity Analysis

  12. Markov Processes • Iterative in time, can be repeated until everybody in the absorbing state • Based on the probabilities of change in status • Three states • Recurrent state • Transient state • Absorbing state

  13. Asymptomatic HIV+ p1 p1 p3 p2 AIDS DEAD P6 p5 Markov Processes p1 HIV+ HIV+ p2 AIDS p3 DEAD p4 AIDS AIDS p5 DEAD p4 DEAD DEAD P6

  14. HIV+ LERx p1 Test + p2 HIV- LETox HIV+ AIDS AIDS AIDS LE LateRx p3 Test - HIV+ HIV+ HIV+ DEAD DEAD DEAD p4 HIV- LE HIV- DEAD Screen HIV- DEAD HIV+ LE Late Rx p5 No Screen p6 LE HIV- DEAD HIV-

  15. Alternatives to Markov Processes • Markov Processes has no memory and based on discrete snapshots in time • Semi Markov Processes – time is continuous, one does not move to the next another stage in the next term and measures holding times • Individual Simulations as a solution: simulates individuals’ travel • Dynamic influence diagrams creates a new influence diagram for the next cycle • Discrete event simulation: what is possible to do
