这份文件提供了每年因跌伤造成的经济损失的最新情况。这些费用包括医疗、康复、住院费用以及发病率和死亡率的费用。根据不断变化的人口趋势，这些成本预计将持续到2020年。针对老年人和工作场所这两个高危群体，分析了预防滑倒和跌倒伤害的市场。关于这个市场是否以社会合意的方式运行，或者政府干预是否基于效率理由是合理的，这些问题都得到了考虑。成本效益分析的基本方面在预防滑倒和跌倒伤害的干预措施的前瞻性评估的背景下进行了审查。成本效益分析框架被应用于FICSIT实验的一部分(减少老年人跌倒的一项重大干预措施)，以及最近修订的旨在减少工作场所跌倒的职业安全和健康管理局条例。
This paper provides an update of annual economic costs imposed by fall injuries. Such costs include medical, rehabilitation, hospital costs, and the costs of morbidity and mortality. These costs are projected to the year 2020, based on changing demographic trends. The market for slip and fall injury prevention is analyzed for the elderly and for those in the workplace-two high risk groups. Questions as to whether this market operates in a socially desirable manner, or whether government intervention is justified on efficiency grounds, are considered. Essential aspects of cost-benefit analysis are reviewed in the context of a prospective evaluation of interventions to prevent slip and fall injuries. THe cost-benefit analysis framework is applied to part of the FICSIT experiment (a major intervention to reduce falls among the elderly) and to recent revisions in Occupational Safety and Health Administration regulations directed at reducing workplace falls.
