Data inputs for one-way sensitivity and scenario analysis (children in age group 5–15 years) Part 3.

Value Source Explanations Calculations
Amount of RIG required for children 5–15 years for local wound + systemic infilteration
Base case 4.33 mL Calculations Population Projections for India and States 2011–2036 and Khadilkar (2019) Age and gender specific proportionate weights and maximum dose calculations using NFHS-4 data and age specific weights in both the genders from Khadilkar V (2019)
Lower limit 2.165 mL Calculations (−50% of base case)
Upper limit 6.495 mL Calculations (+50% of base case)
Amount of RIG required for children 5–15 years for local wound infilteration
Scenario 1 2.64 mL Calculations Bharti (2016) For 5–10 years, Avg quantity = 2 mL
No. of patients = 40,
Total eRIG consumed = 2 × 40 = 80 mL
For 10–15 years, Avg quantity = 3.5 mL,
No. of patients = 30,
Total eRIG consumed = 3.5 × 30 = 105 mL
Total eRIG consumed (5–15 years) = 80 + 105 = 185 mL
Average eRIG consumed = 185/70 = 2.64 mL
