  2. Further research on robot-assisted kidney transplant should include studies comparing robot-assisted kidney transplant with open surgery. This should collect data on patient selection, warm ischaemia times, the need for conversion to open surgery, graft function, and long-term graft and patient survival.

  3. Further research on selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) for unresectable primary intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma in the form of prospective studies, including randomised controlled trials, should address patient selection, quality-of-life outcomes and overall survival. Patient selection for the research studies should be done by amultidisciplinary team. The procedure should only be done in specialist centres by clinicians trained and experienced in managing cholangiocarcinoma.

  9. Further research into implantation of a shock or load absorber for mild to moderate symptomatic medial knee osteoarthritis should include comparative studies against existing forms of management. Studies should record patient selection, functional outcomes, quality of life and complications. They should also report the nature and timing of any further surgery on the knee and the effect of removing the device. A minimum follow-up period of 2–3 years is needed. NICE may update the guidance on publication of further evidence.

  10. Further research into joint distraction for ankle osteoarthritis should include comparative studies against the natural history of the disease and against other forms of management. Studies should record patient selection, pain relief, functional outcomes, complications, and quality of life in the long term. They should also report the nature and timing of any further surgery on the ankle.Minimising loss to follow-up is of particular importance. NICE may update the guidance on publication of further evidence.

Studies should record patient selection, joint space measurements in the medium to long term, functional outcomes, quality of life and complications. They should also report the nature and timing of any further surgery on the knee. NICE may update the guidance on publication of further evidence.

  12. Further research into open reduction of slipped capital femoral epiphysis should clearly describe details of clinical presentation (for example, Loder classification), the degree of slip, its stability, and the surgical technique used; including whether surgical dislocation of the hip was done. Outcomes from 2 years onwards should include degree of correction, occurrence of avascular necrosis and need for subsequent hip surgery (and its timing).

  13. Further research into percutaneous atherectomy of femoropopliteal arterial lesions with plaque excision devices should take the form of well-conducted trials, which should define patient selection, treatment protocols and location and types of arterial lesions treated, and report long-term patency outcomes. NICE may review this procedure on publication of further evidence.
