Health Economic Assessment Tool (HEAT Sample Clauses

Health Economic Assessment Tool (HEAT. The development of Health Economic Assessment Tool (HEAT) was sponsored by the World Health Organization (WHO) for economic assessments of the health impacts of walking or cycling (WHO, 2017). Earlier versions of the tool only estimated reduced mortality and associated economic benefits resulting from specified amounts of walking or cycling in a study area. The latest HEAT can also consider health effects from road crashes and air pollution, and effects on carbon emissions (WHO, 2017). Figure 4 shows the modeling process of HEAT. HEAT applies the same CRA method as ITHIM for evaluation of health benefits from walking and cycling (WHO, 2017). HEAT uses estimates of the relative risk of all-cause deaths among regular cyclists or walkers and compares it with the risk for people who do not cycle or walk regularly. Relative risks for premature deaths or developing certain chronic diseases for those who regularly walk or cycle versus those who do not were derived from meta analyses of published studies. Because ITHIM and HEAT are both based on the CRA method, the application processes and data requirements are similar between the two. The major difference between ITHIM and HEAT is that HEAT assumes a linear relationship between walking or cycling and mortality, while ITHIM posits a non-linear relationship (WHO, 2017; Xxxxxxxx et al., 2013). There are studies (e.g., Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, and Xxxxxxx, 2011; Xxxxxx et al., 2019) suggesting that the dose–response relationship between physical activity and all-cause mortality is most likely non-linear. However, the meta-analysis carried out for HEAT development (Xxxxx et al., 2014) showed that differences between various dose–response curves (i.e., linear vs, non-linear) were modest. A linear approximation is often adequate within the foreseen range of activity for analysis with HEAT. In addition, the linear relationship assumption also avoids additional data requirements on baseline activity levels (WHO, 2017). Existing applications of HEAT were all by European countries (WHO, 2020). There is no HEAT application by any U.S. government agencies. Source: WHO (2017) Figure 4 The modeling process of HEAT
