Influenza Vaccination Cost-Effectiveness Data
Description
This data set contains the results of a Bayesian analysis modeling the clinical outputs and costs associated with an influenza vaccination program.
Format
A list containing variables for the influenza vaccination model:
- cost
A matrix of simulations of the overall costs for the two treatments.
- c.pts
Coordinates for plotting cost distributions.
- cost.GP
A matrix of simulations of the costs for GP visits.
- cost.hosp
A matrix of simulations of the costs for hospitalisations.
- cost.otc
A matrix of simulations of the costs for over-the-counter medications.
- cost.time.off
A matrix of simulations of the costs for time off work.
- cost.time.vac
A matrix of simulations of the costs for time to get vaccinated.
- cost.travel
A matrix of simulations of the costs for travel to get vaccinated.
- cost.trt1
A matrix of simulations of the overall costs for first-line treatment.
- cost.trt2
A matrix of simulations of the overall costs for second-line treatment.
- cost.vac
A matrix of simulations of the costs for vaccination.
- eff
A matrix of simulations of the clinical benefits.
- e.pts
Coordinates for plotting effectiveness distributions.
- N
The number of subjects in the reference population.
- N.outcomes
The number of clinical outcomes analysed.
- N.resources
