To describe the health and economic consequences of smoking model, a user friendly, web based tool, designed to estimate the health and economic outcomes associated with smoking and the benefits of smoking cessation.
An overview of the development of the model equations and user interface is given, and data from the UK are presented as an example of the model outputs. These results show that a typical smoking cessation strategy costs approximately 1200 pounds sterling per life year saved and 22,000 pounds sterling per death averted.
The model successfully captures the complexity required to model smoking behaviour and associated mortality, morbidity, and health care costs. Furthermore, the interface provides the results in a simple and flexible way so as to be useful to a variety of audiences and to simulate a variety of smoking cessation methods.
描述吸烟模型的健康和经济后果,这是一个用户友好的基于网络的工具,旨在估计与吸烟相关的健康和经济结果以及戒烟的益处。
给出了模型方程和用户界面的开发概述,并展示了来自英国的数据作为模型输出的示例。这些结果表明,典型的戒烟策略每挽救一个生命年大约花费1200英镑,每避免一例死亡花费22000英镑。
该模型成功捕捉了模拟吸烟行为及相关死亡率、发病率和医疗保健成本所需的复杂性。此外,该界面以简单灵活的方式提供结果,以便对各种受众有用,并模拟各种戒烟方法。
