Processed nerve allografts to repair peripheral nerve discontinuities (IPG597)
Evidence-based recommendations on processed nerve allografts to repair peripheral nerve discontinuities. This involves using a specially treated nerve (an allograft) taken from a human donor after death to bridge the gap in the nerve.
Hypoglossal nerve stimulation for moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnoea (IPG598)
Evidence-based recommendations on hypoglossal nerve stimulation for moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnoea in adults. This involves implanting a device under the skin in the chest and connecting it to a nerve under the tongue (hypoglossal nerve).
Evidence-based recommendations on subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator insertion for preventing sudden cardiac death. This involves placing a device under the skin of the chest, which detects and treats fast heartbeats called tachyarrhythmias.
Evidence-based recommendations on unilateral MRI-guided focused ultrasound thalamotomy for moderate to severe tremor in Parkinson’s disease in adults. This involves applying ultrasound to a specific area on 1 side of the brain (thalamus).

Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous insertion of craniocaudal expandable implants for vertebral compression fracture in adults. This involves inserting an implant into the spine to restore the vertebral height.
Single-anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy for treating morbid obesity (IPG569)
Evidence-based recommendations on single-anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy for treating morbid obesity. This involves reducing the size of the stomach and small intestine to reduce the amount of food absorbed.
Percutaneous endoscopic laser balloon pulmonary vein isolation for atrial fibrillation (IPG563)
Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous endoscopic laser balloon pulmonary vein isolation for atrial fibrillation in adults. This involves destroying the tissue causing atrial fibrillation using laser energy.
Miniature lens system implantation for advanced age-related macular degeneration (IPG565)
Evidence-based recommendations on miniature lens system implantation for advanced age-related macular degeneration. This involves implanting an artificial lens system into 1 eye only.
Transvaginal mesh repair of anterior or posterior vaginal wall prolapse (IPG599)
Evidence-based recommendations on transvaginal mesh repair of anterior or posterior vaginal wall prolapse. This involves inserting a mesh to replace tissue that has weakened and caused the pelvic organs to drop down (prolapse) into the vagina.
Transcutaneous microwave ablation for severe primary axillary hyperhidrosis (IPG601)
Evidence-based recommendations on transcutaneous microwave ablation for severe primary axillary hyperhidrosis in adults. This involves using microwaves to destroy sweat glands in the armpit.
