The aim of this thesis is to study the clinical, economic and quality-of-life considerations for clinical decision-making and policy development in cardiovascular interventions. More specifi cally the goals are: 1. To investigate the disease prevalence, adoption trends, quality of life, and economic aspects associated with therapies of aortic stenosis. 2. To explore the economic and policy aspects of alternative revascularization therapies for coronary artery disease. 3. To study the performance of risk prediction models in cardiovascular clinical decisionmaking. 4. To appraise and improve the methodology of cardiovascular research, including systematic reviews, cost-eff ectiveness analyses, and observational studies.
