Resource Guidance on an adapted evidence to recommendation process for National Immunization Technical Advisory Groups
Purpose Support NITAGs in using a systematic, standardized decision-making process such as the EtR Process to ensure that NITAG deliberations consider a standard set of criteria and factors, and are consistent, transparent and well-documented.
Content This guidance describes a systematic approach called the “Evidence to Recommendation Process” (‎henceforth called “EtRProcess”)‎ for use by national immunization technical advisory groups (‎NITAGs)‎. The process described is based on the EtR Process used by the WHO Strategic Advisory Groups of Experts on Immunization (‎SAGE)‎ and other long-functioning NITAGs, but has been adapted to fit the level of maturity of recently established NITAGs, which often face limited human and financial resources.
If available, notes on the development process This guidance was developed using available materials from the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), the German NITAG STIKO, the Joint Committee on Vaccine and Immunization (JCVI), WHO and WHO Strategic Advisory Group of Experts on Immunization (SAGE).
