Dear Tracy
Response to your request for official information
Thank you for your request under the Official Information Act 1982 (the Act) to the Ministry of
Health (the Ministry) on 27 May 2021. In response to your earlier request (H202102975 refers),
you asked for:
“I requested the Iatrogenic reports from 2019 and 2020, (#14927) which were denied
because I asked for the 'unscrubbed' data. I am sorry that I may have requested wrongly.
What I mean was, the data without personal information but that included all the iatrogenic
deaths reported (and obviously the medicines involved) and none missed out or deleted.”
On 18 June 2021, the Ministry extended the timeline to respond to your request under section
15A of the Act until 20 August 2021 due to the need for further collation, research and
consultation.
Please find attached the information requested. The data for deaths in 2019 is an excerpt from a
report to the Medicines Adverse Reactions Committee and some information has been withheld
under section 9(2)(a) of the Act to protect the privacy of natural persons. The data for deaths in
2020 has specifically prepared by the New Zealand Centre for Adverse Reactions Monitoring
(CARM) at the University of Otago to respond to your request. CARM undertakes
pharmacovigilance in New Zealand under contract to the Ministry. The report is released to you in
full.
Accompanying the information for 2020 is a statement from the Director of the New Zealand
Pharmacovigilance Centre at CARM that outlines important caveats that must be considered
when interpreting the data. Similar caveats should be applied to the information provided for
2019. It is also important to note that while anyone – doctors, nurses, pharmacists,
pharmaceutical companies, government agencies or a member of the public – can report an
adverse reaction to CARM, reporting is voluntary. There is more information about adverse
reaction reporting at:
https://nzphvc.otago.ac.nz/reporting/
I also noted in your original request an interest in CARM reports related to Sudden Infant Death
Syndrome (SUDI). SUDI cases are often investigated by coroners as sudden or unexplained
deaths and many coronial findings are published on the New Zealand Legal Information Institute
website at:
www.nzlii.org/nz/cases/NZCorC/ (search on SUDI or “cot death”). The Chief Coroner
has also issued a
Recommendations Recap that specifically examines SUDI deaths at:
www.coronialservices.justice.govt.nz/assets/Documents/Publications/issue-14-recommendations-
recap2.pdf
I trust this information fulfils your request. Under section 28(3) of the Act you have the right to ask
the Ombudsman to review any decisions made under this request. The Ombudsman may be
contacted by email at:
[email address] or by calling 0800 802 602.
Please note that this response, with your personal details removed, may be published on the
Ministry website at:
www.health.govt.nz/about-ministry/information-releases/responses-official-
information-act-requests.
Yours sincerely
Chris James

CAVEAT DOCUMENT
Accompanying statement to data released from the
NEW ZEALAND CENTRE FOR ADVERSE REACTIONS MONITORING
1982
The Centre for Adverse Reactions Monitoring (CARM) has only limited details about each
suspected adverse reaction contained in its Database. It is important that the limitations and
ACT
qualifications which apply to the information and its use are understood.
The data made available represent the collection of spontaneous reports in the CARM database
associated with therapeutic products/vaccines granted regulatory approval for use in New Zealand.
Reports have been submitted to the Centre since April 1965 and in many instances describe no
more than suspicions which have arisen from observation of an unexpected or unwanted event.
This level of reporting is due to CARM encouraging reporters to report events they suspect may be
associated with a pharmaceutical product/vaccine irrespective of whether or not they believe it was
the cause. CARM accepts all reports and proof of causality is not required when submitting a
report to CARM. Coincidental events that may be unrelated to pharmaceutical product/vaccine
exposure may be reported. This is particularly possible when the product has widespread use, or
is used in targeted strategies such as vaccination campaigns.
INFORMATION
In most instances it cannot be proven that a pharmaceutical product or ingredient is the cause of
an event in the Database. Reports vary in quality, completeness and detail and may include detail
that is incorrect. Consequently, a report in the CARM database of an event does not confirm that
the pharmaceutical product/vaccine caused the event.
The volume of reports for a particular product may be influenced by the extent of use of the
product, publicity, nature of reactions and other factors which vary over time and from product to
OFFICIAL
product. It is generally accepted internationally that systems such as CARM are subject to under-
reporting which may result in scant reports for events perceived by the reporter to be minor or well
recognised, whilst more serious or unexpected events are possibly more likely to be reported, even
if they are coincidental. Moreover, no information is provided on the number of patients exposed to
THE
the product.
The data contained in these tables are further subject to ongoing internal quality controls, review
and updating and therefore may be subject to change, particularly if follow-up information is
received.
For the above reasons interpretations of adverse reaction data, and particularly those based on
UNDER
comparisons between pharmaceutical products, may be misleading. Any use of this information
must take into account at least the above. Although this information is now released, it is strongly
recommended that prior to any use of such information, CARM is contacted for interpretation.
Any publication, in whole or in part, of the obtained information must have published with it a
statement:
(i)
of the source of the information
(ii)
that the information is not homogenous at least with respect to origin or likelihood
RELEASED that the pharmaceutical product/vaccine caused the adverse reaction,
(iii)
that the information does not represent the opinion of the NZPhvC or CARM.
