  5. 4. Health economics of osteoporosis

    Författare :Fredrik Borgström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Economic evaluation; cost-effectiveness; osteoporosis; fracture related costs; quality of life;

    Sammanfattning : Health economics is concerned about how the scarce resources should most efficiently be allocated to maximise the health outcomes. Health economic evaluation is a method for assessing costs and benefits of alternative treatment strategies for allocating resources to assist decisions aiming at improving efficiency. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Characterization of first ever stroke patients : functional status with special reference to risk of falls and fracture

    Författare :Åsa G Andersson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :stroke;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction. The costs for falling accidents in Sweden are very high. There is now evidence that assessments and intervention programmes are effective in reducing the risk of falling. It is important to identify which patients have a risk of falling and therefore would benefit most from fall prevention measures. LÄS MER
