Review of literature
The Cochrane Collaboration revealed that the best effectiveness for vaccination for influenza-related complications is for persons in long-term care facilities, and the worst for those in community-dwelling people

Review of literature (2)
“Any conclusions regarding the effects of influenza vaccines for people aged 65 years or older cannot be drawn” because of the poor quality of evidence (Jefferson et al 2009).

Review of literature (3)
Medline search for reports between 2009-2012, with the search terms “elderly”, “65 years”, “seasonal”, “influenza”, and “vaccine” identified no studies of efficacy or effectiveness estimates of seasonal flu vaccines
![Page 6: Adjuvanted influenza vaccines are cost-effective in the elderly aged 65+](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032620/55cd8d4abb61eb7c538b4873/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Drawbacks of current studies
Few studies in elderly
Data of poor quality
Cochrane review: 75 studies, of which only five were RCTs
Most RCTs conducted on frail institutionalized elders
No RCTs in community settings

Study parameters• Largest RCT comparing non adjuvanted (TIV) and
Adjuvanted (ATIV)
• Study done in 15 countries including Canada
• The first efficacy estimate in elderly population
• Study was done in 43,802 participants
• Randomized into two groups (TIV v/s ATIV)
• Study done in community settings
• ATIV compared against current standard of care
• Study done over two year period
• Participants followed by telephone, home and site visits
• Samples collected in patients showing flu symptoms

Results
ATIV demonstrated higher efficacy in reducing infections but was not significant statistically
ATIV was efficacious in reducing the number of cases of pneumonia, hospital admissions, and deaths
ATIV was effective against Influenza A virus infections
No Economic evaluation

Results
The use of Adjuvanted flu vaccine was highly cost effective in the elderly
ICER = $2111/QALY gained
Use of ATIV instead of TIV confers benefit to both vaccinated and unvaccinated people
Projections were robust with wide ranging sensitivity analysis
