目的：调整卫生技术评估(HTA)报告以适应不同的情况，可以减少对同一卫生技术的多份报告的需要，从而节省时间和资源。本文介绍了一种工具--适应工具包，该工具包是为帮助适应HTA报告的进程而开发的。方法：该工具包是由来自欧洲各地的HTA机构和网络合作开发的。工具包的作用是指导用户从这些报告中选择可能的相关材料(S)，评估材料的相关性、可靠性和可转移性，并根据所需的背景对其进行调整。结果：已经开发了适应工具包，它包括一系列资源，帮助用户评估现有HTA报告中的数据和信息是否应该和可以根据自己的情况进行调整。该工具包包含两个部分：初步快速筛选部分和主要工具包。主要工具包包括五个领域：(1)技术使用和开发；(2)安全性；(3)有效性(包括功效)；(4)经济评价；(5)组织方面。法律、道德和社会方面超出了工具包的范围。该工具包是为适应证据合成而不是初步研究而设计的。结论：已完成的当前版本的工具包包含核对表和资源，以帮助调整HTA报告。这一资源集合可供所有卫生技术协会机构使用，并可在以下网站上访问：http://www.eunethta.net/upload/WP5/EUnetHTA_HTA_Adaptation_Toolkit_October08.pdf..
Objectives: Adapting health technology assessment (HTA) reports for different contexts could reduce the need for multiple reports on the same health technology with resultant saving of time and resources. This article describes an instrument, the adaptation toolkit, which has been developed to aid in the process of adaptation of HTA reports. Methods: The toolkit was developed by a partnership of HTA agencies and networks from across Europe. The role of the toolkit is to guide the user through the process of selecting possible relevant material from these report(s), assessing the relevance, reliability, and transferability of the material, and adapting it for the desired context. Results: The adaptation toolkit has been developed, it comprises a collection of resources that help the user assess whether data and information in existing HTA reports should and could be adapted for their own setting. The toolkit contains two sections: a preliminary speedy sifting section and the main toolkit. The main toolkit includes five domains: (i) technology use and development, (ii) safety, (iii) effectiveness (including efficacy), (iv) economic evaluation, and (v) organizational aspects. Legal, ethical, and social aspects are beyond the scope of the toolkit. The toolkit is designed for the adaptation of evidence synthesis rather than primary research. Conclusions: The completed current version of the toolkit contains checklists and resources to aid in the adaptation of HTA reports. This collection of resources is available for use by all HTA agencies and can be accessed at: http://www.eunethta.net/upload/WP5/EUnetHTA_HTA_Adaptation_Toolkit_October08.pdf..
