Studies were included if they reported a set (i.e., > 1) of decision criteria and were: empirical studies conducted with healthcare decisionmakers (including field-testing of decisionmaking tools, focus groups, questionnaires, interviews) reviews of such empirical studies, and conceptual studies describing or proposing a set of decision criteria or a decisionmaking tool.
Factors influencing the effectiveness of HIAs will be examined in a separate paper, this includes aspects of the survey data not included in assessments on decisionmaking.
Components that are quantifiable from a universal standpoint (defined as intrinsic value components) are structured into an MCDA matrix (the MCDA Value Matrix or VM), which includes 15 components usually considered in healthcare decisionmaking [ 27].
To a degree, adaptive policy tools #3 and #4 can be used toward this purpose, but most directly, such autonomous tools include: (#5) enabling self-organization and social networking; (#6) decentralizing decisionmaking to the lowest and most effective jurisdictional level; and (#7) promoting variation in policy responses.
A multicriteria decision analysis (MCDA) Value Matrix (VM) was developed to include the 15 quantifiable components that are currently considered in decisionmaking.
The following eligibility criteria were used: population including adults >16 years managed in the ICU; use of ultrasound to guide decisionmaking pre-PDT or guide PDT performance; report of clinically relevant outcome measures.
Foresight should be treated as an instrument to be applied in the Science and Technology decisionmaking process at different levels: European Commission, national governments and independent R&D organisations, including private industry.
