Clinical Practice Guidelines
Clinical Practice Guidelines are systematically developed statements that assist healthcare providers in making decisions about appropriate healthcare for specific clinical circumstances. They are based on a thorough review of the best available evidence, expert consensus, and clinical expertise, aiming to improve patient outcomes and standardize care.
These guidelines cover a wide range of topics, including disease prevention, diagnosis, and treatment options. Organizations like the American Medical Association and World Health Organization often create and update these guidelines to reflect new research findings and ensure that healthcare practices remain current and effective.
