Floristán Jiménez, Sara2015-12-012020-06-122015https://academica-e.unavarra.es/handle/2454/19540Objective: The purpose of this research is to analyze the topic of health economics and more precisely understand the method of cost- effectiveness analysis of health technologies. The theoretical framework will be applied to the Varicella and the varicella vaccine, performing a cost-effectiveness analysis for the varicella vaccination strategy to children in Navarre. Methods: A Markov model is designed to estimate costs of the strategy using no vaccination as comparator. Tree Age Data program software is used. Results: The cost-effectiveness analysis done concludes that the program of vaccination will prevent 327 cases of Varicella. Additionally, the health system of Navarre will save, by applying the vaccination program, 352,903.376 Euros, what means that the vaccination is a dominant strategy compared with no vaccination.application/pdfengEconomic evaluationCost effectivenessVaricella vaccinationHealth EconomicsVaricellaNavarreinfo:eu-repo/semantics/bachelorThesis2015-11-04info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessEconomía y organización de empresas
