Optimizing age-based targeting in ice cleat distribution programs for preventing winter fall injuries: a cost-effectiveness modeling study

Age-targeted ice cleat distribution appears more cost-effective than universal provision and preferable to no distribution, but current programs limited to older adults may be suboptimal. Extending eligibility to middle-aged adults could further improve cost-effectiveness from a societal perspective.

Abstract

Age-targeted ice cleat distribution appears more cost-effective than universal provision and preferable to no distribution, but current programs limited to older adults may be suboptimal. Extending eligibility to middle-aged adults could further improve cost-effectiveness from a societal perspective.
