About The Systematic Review

Twenty-three qualifying studies provided 26 study arms evaluating 22 different combinations of interventions for the systematic review.

These results were based on a systematic review of all available studies, conducted on behalf of the Task Force by a team of specialists in systematic review methods, and in research, practice and policy related to vaccinations to prevent diseases.

Context

There is no information for this section.

Summary of Results

  • Vaccination coverage: median increase of 16.5 percentage points (range: -5.9 to 67.0 percentage points; 16 studies, 19 study arms)
  • These results should be applicable in most client and provider populations and most settings where improvements in coverage are needed.
  • Evidence was insufficient to determine the effectiveness of other combinations of interventions in increasing coverage.

Summary of Economic Evidence
