Synthesizing evidence for economic evaluations of public health interventions
Keyword(s):
Reviewing and synthesizing evidence is an important component of the toolkit of methods for the economic evaluation of PHIs. Chapter 4 provides readers with information about good practice in identifying relevant literature, judging the quality of relevant literature, and synthesizing evidence for economic evaluations of PHIs. Narrative synthesis has become a key focus in synthesizing complex PHIs. Readers are also introduced to the idea that logic (conceptual) models can be helpful in describing processes and hence outcomes. The chapter goes on to describe mixed-method reviews, realist synthesis, other forms of evidence synthesis, and equity considerations.
