  • NICE Clinical Guidelines

    Topics:
    • Safety and quality, 
    • NICE clinical guidelines

    NICE Clinical Guidelines make evidence-based recommendations on a wide range of topics from preventing and managing specific conditions to planning broader services and interventions to improve the health of communities

    Note

    It is important to note that the advice contained within the guidance does not override or replace the individual responsibility of health professionals to make appropriate decisions in the circumstances of their individual patients, in consultation with the patient and/or guardian or carer. This would, for example, include situations where individual patients have other conditions or complications that need to be taken into account in determining whether the NICE guidance is fully appropriate in their case.
