Evidence-Based Clinical Practice Guidelines
(EBCPGs)For Medical Staff of
Healthcare Organizations (HCOs)
2013
IntroductionBy
Dr. Yasser Sami A. Amer, MBBCh, MSPediatrician - HC Informatician
EBCPGs Advisor & Trainer
Concepts & Definitions
Two Different Approaches to Evidence-Based Practice (EBP)
Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPGs)•“Top-down” approach• Tell clinicians how to practice• Favored by health care systems
Evidence-Based Medicine (EBM)•“Bottom-up” approach• Teach clinicians how to find answers• Favored by medical educators
EBM definitionThe integration of best research evidence
with clinical expertise and patient valuesSackett et al 2000

What is “EBM” NOT?• What we have always done !;
(not old hat or just the same old medical practice; as evidenced in wide practice variation)
• “Cookbook Medicine”!EBM specifically advocates for individualized application of evidence to patient care, not forcing patient care to conform to generalized evidence
• Only a cost-cutting trick !;it is intended to guide practitioners to provide the best, not necessarily the cheapest, care.
• Only RCTs !;(Also with best relevant evidence applicable to the situation in question)
– EBM is tracking down the best external evidence from scientific research to answer our clinical question(s)…
Definition: (old)“Systematically developed statements to assist
practitioner and patient decisions about appropriate health care for specific clinical circumstances” (Institute of Medicine 1990).
Increasing international interest in the development and implementation of CPGs.
Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPGs)
CPGs New DefinitionCPGs are “Statements that include Recommendations intended to optimize patient care that are informed by a Systematic Review of evidence and an assessment of the benefits and harms of alternative care options”.
Committee on Standards for Developing Trustworthy CPGs (IOM-AHRQ)
Why do we need guidelines?
Rationale for CPGs•Worldwide concerns about: ▫Unexplained variations in clinical practice▫Rising health care costs▫Exponential growth of information
• Aim of Clinical Practice Guidelines:▫To facilitate more consistent, effective and
efficient practice and improve health outcomes for patients

Adaptation of Clinical Practice Guidelines
The ADAPTE collaboration is an international collaboration of CPG researchers, developers and implementers. Their main aim is to develop and validate a generic adaptation process that will foster valid and high-quality adapted guidelines as well as the user’s sense of ownership of the adapted guideline.Since 2009 The ADAPTE Collaboration has merged into the Guidelines
International Network (G-I-N) with all its resources to form the G-I-N Adaptation Working Group
Guideline Adaptation• Is the systematic approach to the endorsement and/or
modification of a guideline(s) produced in one cultural and organizational setting for application in a different context. Adaptation may be used as an alternative to de novo guideline development, e.g., for customizing (an) existing guideline(s) to suit the local context.

Hospital Official CPGs:Two separate documents
FIRST (Clinicians’ Version)• Accessible from ALL points-of-care
for the hospital staff:• Details of evidence-based
recommendations for management (with only references to the other document)
SECOND:(Methodologist’s Version) ;
• Accessible from Libraries
of e.g. Department, College of Medicine, CPG Committee, QMD, Authorship group,…etc. (Reference for Replication & Documentation)
• Detailed description of the CPG Adaptation process with ALL relevant data.
Dissemination & Implementation
Nothing could be more frustrating than producing
a CPG that is then ignored by not being
disseminated nor implemented
Dissemination of CPGs•Full CPGs documents published on
websites - integrated into HCO’s Health Information System (HIS) & Electronic Medical Records (EMRs)
•Implementation tools will also be published: examples for choice:-▫Quick Reference Guide (Summary Key Rs)▫Clinical Algorithms (decision tree)▫Clinical pathways (Integrated care pathways)▫Patient Information (Education Guide)▫Gantt chart for dissemination & Implementation▫Audit and Research Rs.
• If CPGs are to have a positive impact on patient care outcomes they must be implemented and incorporated into everyday clinical practice
• The identification of any barriers to implementation, and strategies for overcoming them, will form an essential part of discussions at CPGs Subcommittee/ Adaptation Group meetings
