  1. Liposuction for chronic lymphoedema (IPG723)

    Evidence-based recommendations on liposuction for chronic lymphoedema in adults. This involves using suction to remove fluid and fat through punctures in the skin.

  2. Personalised external aortic root support (PEARS) using mesh to prevent aortic root expansion and aortic dissection in people with Marfan syndrome (IPG724)

    Evidence-based recommendations on personalised external aortic root support (PEARS) using mesh to prevent aortic root expansion and aortic dissection in people with Marfan syndrome. This involves opening the chest through the breastbone and wrapping a mesh around the outside of the aorta at the part closest to the heart.

  3. Transcutaneous electrical neuromuscular stimulation for urinary incontinence (IPG735)

    Evidence-based recommendations on transcutaneous electrical neuromuscular stimulation for urinary incontinence in adults. This involves stimulating nerves and muscles in the pelvic floor to strengthen the muscles and reduce urine leaks.

  4. Superficial venous arterialisation for chronic limb threatening ischaemia (IPG736)

    Evidence-based recommendations on superficial venous arterialisation for chronic limb threatening ischaemia in adults. This involves joining an artery in the lower leg to a large vein to divert blood flow through the vein towards the foot, bypassing the blocked arteries.

  5. Prostatic urethral temporary implant insertion for lower urinary tract symptoms caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia (IPG737)

    Evidence-based recommendations on prostatic urethral temporary implant insertion for lower urinary tract symptoms caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia. This involves positioning a temporary implant in the urethra to increase the flow of urine.

  6. Removal, preservation and subsequent reimplantation of ovarian tissue to prevent symptoms from the menopause (IPG738)

    Evidence-based recommendations on removal, preservation and subsequent reimplantation of ovarian tissue to prevent symptoms from the menopause. This involves removing a small piece of ovarian tissue using keyhole surgery, freezing and storing it. After menopause starts, the tissue is thawed and transplanted under the skin of the armpit, abdomen or forearm, with the aim of producing oestrogen.

  7. Neurostimulation of lumbar muscles for refractory non-specific chronic low back pain (IPG739)

    Evidence-based recommendations on neurostimulation of lumbar muscles for refractory non-specific chronic low back pain in adults. This involves implanting a pulse generator under the skin of the upper buttock or lower back, which the person can use to manage their pain.

  8. Transcutaneous electrical stimulation of the supraorbital nerve for treating and preventing migraine (IPG740)

    Evidence-based recommendations on transcutaneous electrical stimulation of the supraorbital nerve for treating and preventing migraine in adults. This involves attaching a small device on the forehead to send small electrical currents to the nerves that bring sensation to the upper eyelids, forehead and scalp.

  9. YAG laser vitreolysis for symptomatic vitreous floaters (IPG741)

    Evidence-based recommendations on YAG laser vitreolysis for symptomatic vitreous floaters. This involves a special type of laser (YAG) firing short pulses of energy into the floaters, to break them up (vitreolysis) and reduce sight disturbances.

  10. Extracorporeal shockwave therapy for calcific tendinopathy in the shoulder (IPG742)

    Evidence-based recommendations on extracorporeal shockwave therapy for calcific tendinopathy in the shoulder. This involves placing a device on the skin that delivers short pulses of sound into the shoulder. The aim is to reduce pain and improve shoulder function.

  11. Percutaneous ultrasound-guided microwave ablation for symptomatic benign thyroid nodules (IPG743)

    Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous ultrasound-guided microwave ablation for symptomatic benign thyroid nodules. This involves using microwaves from a wire inserted into the nodule to heat and destroy it (ablation).

  12. Ab interno canaloplasty for open-angle glaucoma (IPG745)

    Evidence-based recommendations on ab interno canaloplasty for open-angle glaucoma. This involves widening the channel that drains fluid from the eye. The aim is to reduce pressure in the eye.

  13. Tunnelled peritoneal drainage catheter insertion for refractory ascites in cirrhosis (IPG746)

    Evidence-based recommendations on tunnelled peritoneal drainage catheter insertion for refractory ascites in cirrhosis. This involves inserting a catheter under the skin in the abdomen to drain excess fluid when needed, at home or in community care. The aim is to reduce the need for hospital admissions and improve quality of life.

  14. Endoanchoring systems in endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (IPG725)

    Evidence-based recommendations on endoanchoring systems in endovascular aortic aneurysm repair. This involves using an anchoring device to hold a stent in place to prevent leaks in an aneurysm repair.

  15. Supercapsular percutaneously assisted total hip arthroplasty for osteoarthritis (IPG726)

    Evidence-based recommendations on supercapsular percutaneously assisted total hip arthroplasty for osteoarthritis in adults. This involves replacing a hip using smaller cuts than are used in standard surgery.
