An economic evaluation of energy-absorbing flooring to prevent hip fractures.

C Zacker1, D Shea.   

Abstract

An economic evaluation of energy-absorbing flooring designed to prevent hip fractures revealed a payback period of 10 1/2 years if only direct costs avoided were evaluated and just over 11 months when direct and indirect costs were included. Cost-effectiveness ratios of less than $0 per hip fracture prevented and life year saved were also estimated.
