Resumen:
Economic evaluations of health interventions
pose a particular challenge for reporting. There is also a need
to consolidate and update existing guidelines and promote
their use in a user friendly manner. The Consolidated Health
Economic Evaluation Reporting Standards (CHEERS)
statement is an attempt to consolidate and update previous
health economic evaluation guidelines efforts into one current,
useful reporting guidance. The primary audiences for
the CHEERS statement are researchers reporting economic
evaluations and the editors and peer reviewers assessing
them for publication. The need for new reporting guidance
was identified by a survey of medical editors. A list of possible
items based on a systematic review was created. A two
round, modified Delphi panel consisting of representatives
from academia, clinical practice, industry, government, and
the editorial community was conducted. Out of 44 candidate
items, 24 items and accompanying recommendations were
developed. The recommendations are contained in a user
friendly, 24 item checklist. A copy of the statement, accompanying
checklist, and this report can be found on the ISPOR
Health Economic Evaluations Publication Guidelines Task
Force website (www.ispor.org/TaskForces/EconomicPub
Guidelines.asp). We hope CHEERS will lead to better reporting,
and ultimately, better health decisions. To facilitate
dissemination and uptake, the CHEERS statement is being
co-published across 10 health economics and medical journals.
We encourage other journals and groups, to endorse CHEERS.
The author team plans to review the checklist for an update in
five years.
