Cost‐effectiveness of <scp>cEK</scp> ‐preventive matched transfusion strategies for female transfusion recipients to prevent haemolytic disease of the foetus and newborn in the Dutch healthcare setting
Transfusion matching for c and K, but not E, is the most cost-effective strategy to prevent HDFN in the Dutch setting. Matching for E provides minimal health benefit at higher costs. These findings support revising current guidelines to cK-matching, ensuring optimal prevention of HDFN while reducing healthcare expenditures.
