Seasonal influenza has a considerable public health impact, and vaccination is the key to preventing its consequences. Our aim was to describe how the value of influenza vaccination is addressed in the scientific literature considering a new value framework based on four pillars (personal, allocative, technical, and societal value).
A systematic review was conducted by querying three databases. The analysis was performed on international studies focused on influenza vaccination value, and the four value pillars were taken into consideration for their description.
Overall, 40 studies were considered. Most of them focused on influenza vaccination in the general population (27.5%), emphasizing its value for all age groups. Most studies addressed technical value (70.4%), especially in terms of economic models and cost drivers to be considered for the economic evaluations of influenza vaccines, and societal value (63%), whereas few dealt with personal (37%) and allocative values (22.2%).
The whole value of influenza vaccination is still not completely recognized. Knowledge and communication of the whole value of influenza vaccination is essential to guide value-based health policies. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to implement initiatives that involve all relevant stakeholders.
季节性流感对公众健康有重大影响，接种疫苗是预防其后果的关键。我们的目的是根据一个基于四个支柱（个人价值、分配价值、技术价值和社会价值）的新价值框架，描述科学文献中如何阐述流感疫苗接种的价值。
通过查询三个数据库进行系统综述。对聚焦于流感疫苗接种价值的国际研究进行分析，并考虑四个价值支柱进行描述。
总体而言，共纳入40项研究。其中大多数聚焦于普通人群的流感疫苗接种（27.5%），强调其对所有年龄组的价值。大多数研究涉及技术价值（70.4%），特别是在流感疫苗经济评估应考虑的经济模型和成本驱动因素方面，以及社会价值（63%），而涉及个人价值（37%）和分配价值（22.2%）的研究较少。
流感疫苗接种的整体价值仍未得到充分认识。了解并传播流感疫苗接种的整体价值对于指导基于价值的卫生政策至关重要。为实现这一目标，有必要实施涉及所有相关利益攸关方的举措。
