Guidance
7 Further information
7.1 This guidance requires that clinicians doing the procedure make special arrangements for audit. NICE has identified relevant audit criteria and has developed NICE's interventional procedure outcomes audit tool (which is for use at local discretion).
7.2 Patient commentary was not sought because the procedure is only being done in research setting in the UK.
7.3 For related NICE guidance, see the NICE website.
