Data were collected between January 2010 and September 2012 in Alberta, Canada.
a
2011 Canadian dollars.
b
Adjusted for pre-enrolment cost and body mass index (BMI), see Table 2.
c
Non-parametric bootstrap 95% confidence interval based on 10,000 replications.
d
Adjusted for baseline average steps, body mass index (BMI), age and sex, see Table 2.
e
ICER = incremental cost–effectiveness ratio = additional cost per 1000 steps = incremental cost (102) ∕ incremental outcome (919/1000).
