Why Guidelines?
To ensure that treatment is evidence based.
Guidelines are developed by experts based on
clinical studies.
To make treatment consistent between different
physicians.
To make it possible to detect and compare side-
effects.
To be able to compare new to old treatments
and to change treatment in a consistent way.

What don’t guidelines do?
Typically guidelines DO NOT require that
everyone be treated the same.
Do not restrict reasonable options.
Do not prevent a different treatment in special
circumstances.

To be relevant there must be a process for the
guidelines to be frequently updated.
