1. The Canadian Top Ten Watch List of New and Emerging Health Technologies: Methods, Lessons Learned, and Impact Rosmin Esmail, MSc, CHE Chair for CNESH Director, Health Technology Assessment and Adoption Research, Innovation and Analytics Portfolio Alberta Health Servcies CADTH symposium, April 13, 2015

2.  Started in May 2011.  A Canadian collaborative network of organizations and individuals.  Identifies and shares information on new and emerging health technologies to support health care decision making and the appropriate adoption and use of effective and safe health technologies. Canadian Network for Environmental Scanning in Health

3.  To identify information on new, emerging, or new applications of health technologies, and to share this information across Canada.  To develop and promote methods for the identification, filtration and prioritization of new or emerging health technologies. Mandate

5. What should CNESH focus on

6. WHY A TOP 10 LIST? – WE HAVE OTHER EXAMPLES

7. EXAMPLES OF OTHER TOP 10 LISTS IN HEALTH CARE

8. Why not a Canadian top 10 list?

9.  Fall 2012-Network members agreed to develop an annual top 10 list of new and emerging health technologies for Canada.  Technologies that would be potential “game changers”.  List would be useful to support Canadian health care decision makers (patient, provider and policy maker) and HTA producers.  Support effective planning and decision making for introduction of new and innovative health technologies in the Canadian Health Care system.  Sought advice at CADTH 2013 workshop  Developed a rigorous process to ensure we were following best practices in horizon scanning What we did?

10.  Drugs, including but not limited to, biologics, blood products, vaccines, and prescription and non-prescription medicines.  Medical, dental, and surgical devices and procedures.  Diagnostics, including but not limited to, laboratory tests, screening programs, and diagnostic imaging.  Does not include:  Health human resources  Health system design  Electronic health-related technologies CADTH definition of Health Technology

11.  ‘ New’ refers to health technology that has been approved for clinical use for only a short time and is generally in the launch or early post- marketing stage of diffusion. Medical devices may be marketed but <10% diffused or localised to only a few centres.  Drugs are considered if they have not received Health Canada approval at the prioritization phase of the CNESH top 10 process.  ‘Emerging’ refers to a health technology that has not yet been approved by the regulator for use but has potential for significant impact on the health care system. Pharmaceuticals will usually be in phase II or III clinical trials; medical devices will be within six to nine months of marketing.  Emerging technologies could also include:  an existing health technology being investigated for a new indication, or  a health technology that is part of a group of developing technologies that, as a whole, may have an impact.
