Abstract: In this scoping review detailing the challenges of assessing new technologies for use in children, authors Nora Hutchinson, Lauren Otterman, Elisa Koppelman, Barbara E. Bierer, and colleagues highlight the substantial difficulties in incorporating children within the population-wide health technology assessment (HTA) system, as well as the uncertainty accompanying pediatric HTAs due to data constraints, lack of guidance and/or variation in guidance, between HTA bodies.
