Website of the month - The PEDE Project

December's website of the month comes from the PEDE Project which is a a huge database of over 2,000 paediatric economic evaluations that have been published over the past 30 years. It also includes an inventory of health state utility weights reported in cost-utility analyses.
They also have The PEDE research program which is focused on identifying trends in publication, developing tools for quality appraisal, and addressing the challenges surrounding health state valuation in children.

Project - Methods for the conduct of economic evaluations have evolved over time to improve the quality of evidence for allocation decisions. However, child health differs from adult health in important ways. As a result, there are aspects to the measurement of costs and consequences that are unique to the paediatric population.
The goal of the Paediatric Economic Database Evaluation (PEDE) Project is to provide tools and promote research to advance the field of child health economic evaluation.
