  4. NICE encourages further research into extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) for refractory greater trochanteric pain syndrome. Research studies should clearly describe patient selection, imaging, and treatment protocols. Outcomes should include functional and quality-of-life scores with at least 1 year of follow-up.

  5. NICE encourages further research into the efficacy of MRI-guided transcutaneous focused ultrasound for uterine fibroids. Research studies should report long-term outcomes, including the need for further treatment. Data on the incidence and outcomes of subsequent pregnancy in patients who choose this procedure because they wish to maintain or improve their fertility are particularly important.

  8. NICE encourages further research into focal cryoablation for localised prostate cancer. This should take the form of controlled studies comparing the procedure against other forms of management. Studies should clearly define patient selection criteria and should report outcomes including local recurrence in the long term.

  10. How much using remote monitoring devices to guide decisions about care affects symptoms, and therefore health-related quality of life, is uncertain. How long after using the devices any impact would last is also uncertain. This had a sizeable influence on cost-effectiveness estimates (see section 3.10 ). Data on this came from studies that did not represent likely NHS practice (see section 3.6 ), which is itself uncertain (see section 3.3 ), and from assumptions made by the EAG because of lack of data. For its model, the EAG used a published algorithm from Chandler et al. (2020) to estimate quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) from the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) domain scores. The clinical experts said that health-related quality of life questionnaires like the PDQ‑39 are increasingly used in trials to assess health-related quality of life for people with Parkinson's disease. The committee also recognised that the effect of the devices on the health-related quality of life of carers had not been included in the EAG's model because of a lack of data (see section 3.13 ).

  14. NICE considered that further research is needed to determine whether faecal haemoglobin levels are influenced by age, sex and medicines that increase the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding. It noted that these data could be used to further develop risk scores that include variables such as age, sex and symptoms to help determine pre-test probability. The data could also be combined with faecal haemoglobin concentration to refine management after the use of faecal immunochemical tests in primary care.
