Transmyocardial laser revascularisation (TMR) is a procedure that mimics the circulation of the reptilian heart by creating 20-40 myocardial channels in the left ventricle using laser ablation. The operation is performed on the beating heart without using the heart-lung circulation machine. Both CO2 and holmium lasers can be used in this procedure. The application estimates approximately 50-100 patients will need the TMR each year in a large teaching hospital providing this service, with no more than 400 procedures per year in Australia. However, expert opinion indicates this is likely to be an underestimation of usage. TMR is associated with 3-5 per cent peri-operative mortality and the common complications associated with any thoractomy. The estimated incremental cost effectiveness ratios for the first year after TMR are: $18,159 per extra patient free of unstable angina; and $21,237 per extra patient free of disabling angina. Cost savings of up to $4,297 per patient per year may occur for the second year and subsequent yaers follow-up, if there is sustained symptom relief. MSAC found there is insufficient evidence to conclude that the clinical benefits of TMR outweigh the potential risks as: the procedure is associated with 3-5 per cent peri-operative mortality; and there is uncertainty in symptom relief beyond 12 months. In addition, the cost effectiveness ratios are considered unfavourable.
