February 2025: It has become clear during development that the work required to deliver the entire scope would result in publication being delayed by a number of years. NICE is keen to ensure timely delivery of the most important parts of the original scope. To achieve this, we plan to divide the work into a series of updates. See the update information statement for further details. 

 
 

You can now comment on this draft scope. The scope defines what the guideline will (and will not) cover.

The consultation closes on 16 September 2022 at 5pm
