RESPONSE TO THE LETTER TO THE EDITOR REGARDING "HEALTH ECONOMIC EVALUATION OF MICROPROCESSOR AND NON-MICROPROCESSOR-CONTROLLED PROSTHETIC KNEES"
We responded to comments by Brüggenjürgen et al. (https://doi.org/10.33137/cpoj.v8i2.46339) regarding our study on cost-effectiveness of different prosthesis types (https://doi.org/10.33137/cpoj.v8i2.45823). We explained why small effect differences lead to high ICUR values and clarify our costing approach. We emphasized the need for future studies on prosthesis life-cycle, long-term outcomes, and improved quality-of-life measures for more accurate evaluations.
