This function plots the cost-effectiveness plane for two strategies.

Usage

plot_ce(df, e_int, e_comp, c_int, c_comp, currency = "euro", axes = T)

Arguments

df

a dataframe.

e_int

character. Name of variable of the dataframe containing total effects of the intervention strategy.

e_comp

character. Name of variable of the dataframe containing total effects of the comparator strategy.

c_int

character. Name of variable of the dataframe containing total costs of the intervention strategy.

c_comp

character. Name of variable of the dataframe containing total costs of the comparator strategy.

currency

character. Default is "euro". Determines the currency sign to use in the incremental cost effectiveness plane. Currently included signs: "euro", "dollar", "yen", "none".

axes

logical. Default is TRUE, axes are plotted at x = 0 and y = 0. If FALSE, no axes are plotted.

Value

A ggplot2 graph.

Examples

# Plot cost effectiveness plane
data("df_pa")
plot_ce(df = df_pa,
        e_int = "t_qaly_d_int",
        e_comp = "t_qaly_d_comp",
        c_int = "t_costs_d_int",
        c_comp = "t_costs_d_comp",
        currency = "none"
        )
