CADTH conducted an HTA on the clinical effectiveness, cost-effectiveness, and related patient preferences and experiences of outpatient cardiac monitoring devices in patients who have experienced a stroke or TIA.6 The Health Technology Expert Review Panel (HTERP) developed recommendations on the appropriate use of outpatient cardiac monitoring devices based on the evidence presented in the HTA report. HTERP members reviewed the HTA evidence, discussed all elements of the HTERP deliberative framework10 (www.cadth.ca/sites/default/files/pdf/hterp/HTERP_DFW_e.pdf), and developed a consensus-based recommendation through discussion and deliberation. Additional information on the HTERP process is found on the HTERP page of the CADTH website: www.cadth.ca/collaboration-and-outreach/advisory-bodies/health-technology-expert-review-panel.
