The ASGE’S vision for developing clinical practice guidelines: the path forward

Clinical practice guidelines have played a pivotal role in shaping healthcare delivery. Based on the National Academy of Medicine (previously known as the Institute of Medicine) report, Clinical Practice Guidelines We Can Trust,1 practice guidelines are defined as statements that include recommendations intended to optimize patient care that are informed by a systematic review of evidence and as assessment of the benefits and harms of alternative care options. Over the last few decades significant advances have been made in the field of guideline development that highlight the importance of methodologic rigor, greater transparency, and actionable recommendations.
