  1. Autologous blood injection for plantar fasciitis (HTG298)

    Evidence-based recommendations on autologous blood injection for plantar fasciitis. This involves supplying the connective tissue with growth factors that promote the healing process.

  2. Percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation for right ventricular outflow tract dysfunction (HTG297)

    Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation for right ventricular outflow tract dysfunction. This involves implanting a replacement valve with a wire mesh tube called a stent.

  3. Radiofrequency cold ablation for respiratory papillomatosis (HTG295)

    Evidence-based recommendations on radiofrequency cold ablation for respiratory papillomatosis. This involves using an electrical current to dissolve or shrink the papillomas (non-cancerous growths).

  4. Percutaneous laser atherectomy as an adjunct to balloon angioplasty (with or without stenting) for peripheral arterial disease (HTG294)

    Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous laser atherectomy as an adjunct to balloon angioplasty (with or without stenting) for peripheral arterial disease. This involves using a baloon to widen the artery at the site of the blockage.

  5. Implantation of a left ventricular assist device for destination therapy in people ineligible for heart transplantation (HTG369)

    Evidence-based recommendations on implantation of a left ventricular assist device for destination therapy in people ineligible for heart transplantation.

  6. Flexible endoscopic treatment of a pharyngeal pouch (HTG367)

    Evidence-based recommendations on flexible endoscopic treatment of a pharyngeal pouch. This involves improving swallowing by widening the neck of the pouch so that food does not collect in it.

  7. Implantation of a shock or load absorber for mild to moderate symptomatic medial knee osteoarthritis (HTG366)

    Evidence-based recommendations on implantation of a shock or load absorber for mild to moderate symptomatic medial knee osteoarthritis.

  8. Open reduction of slipped capital femoral epiphysis (HTG365)

    Evidence-based recommendations on open reduction of slipped capital femoral epiphysis. This involves fixxing a slipped capital femoral epiphysis back into its correct position to reduce the risk of avascular necrosis.

  9. Hysteroscopic metroplasty of a uterine septum for recurrent miscarriage (HTG364)

    Evidence-based recommendations on hysteroscopic metroplasty of a uterine septum for recurrent miscarriage. This involves removing the septum using instruments passed through a thin tube with a camera inserted into the womb.

  10. Hysteroscopic metroplasty of a uterine septum for primary infertility (HTG363)

    Evidence-based recommendations on hysteroscopic metroplasty of a uterine septum for primary infertility. This involves inserting a hysteroscope into the uterus through the cervix after cervical dilation, and excising the septum. The aim is to reduce morbidity and shorten the recovery period.

  11. Laser sheath removal of pacing leads (HTG36)

    Evidence-based recommendations on laser sheath removal of pacing leads. This involves using a special tube (sheath) placed over the leads in the veins to destroy the scar tissue around the leads and pull the pacemaker lead away from the heart.

  12. Insertion of a collagen plug to close an abdominal wall enterocutaneous fistula (HTG359)

    Evidence-based recommendations on insertion of a collagen plug to close an abdominal wall enterocutaneous fistula. This involves inserting a collagen plug into the fistula to seal off where it joins the bowel.

  13. Insertion of an annular disc implant at lumbar discectomy (HTG358)

    Evidence-based recommendations on insertion of an annular disc implant at lumbar discectomy. This involves inserting an implant to close the hole that is left in a torn disc after any bulging material has been removed during surgery.

  14. Telemetric adjustable pulmonary artery banding for pulmonary hypertension in infants with congenital heart defects (HTG357)

    Evidence-based recommendations on telemetric adjustable pulmonary artery banding for reducing pulmonary hypertension in infants with congenital heart defects. This involves placing a remote-controlled band around the pulmonary artery that can be tightened or loosened to control blood flow.

  15. Combined endoscopic and laparoscopic removal of colonic polyps (HTG354)

    Evidence-based recommendations on combined endoscopic and laparoscopic removal of colonic polyps. This involves using an endoscope in the bowel plus keyhole surgery through the skin of the abdomen to remove colonic polyps.
