RESUMO
ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE：To compare the effectiveness and economics of peramivir and oseltamivir in the treatment of influenza complicated with febrile seizures in children. METHODS：In retrospective study，152 children with influenza complicated with febrile seizures were collected from our hospital during Dec. 2018 to Mar. 2019.They were divided into peramivir group（81 cases） and oseltamivir group （71 cases）. Fever remission time， medication duration， hospital duration， clinical efficacy （determined by convulsion，cough，nasal obstruction，runny nose，sore throat，etc.），the incidence of rash，the number of children with combined antibiotic and TCM were compared between 2 groups. Cost-effectiveness analysis was used to evaluate cost-effectiveness ratio（CER）and incremental cost-effectiveness ratio（ICER）of medication regimen in 2 groups. The sensitivity analysis of the effect and total cost were carried out with Logistic regression and multiple linear regression respectively through CER and ICER calculated by reducing 15％ drug price. RESULTS：There was no statistical significance in fever remission time， medication duration，hospitalization duration，the incidence of rash and proportion of children with combined antibiotics between 2 groups（P＞0.05）. There was statistical significance in proportion of children with combined TCM and clinical effect，and the proportion of children with combined TCM in peramivir group was significantly lower than oseltamivir group（P＜0.001）. Clinical effect of peramivir group was significantly better than that of oseltamivir group（P＝0.021）. Total cost of peramivir group and oseltamivir group were 5 442.84 yuan/person and 5 571.71 yuan/person（P＝0.795）；CER of them were 54.47 and 56.51；ICER of peramivir group was － 89.38. The results of sensitivity analysis were consistent with those of basic analysis.CONCLUSIONS： Compared with oseltamivir，peramivir is more effective and less costly for children with influenza and febrile seizures.
