  1. Endoscopic submucosal dissection of gastric lesions (IPG360)

    Evidence-based recommendations on endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) of gastric lesions. This involves inserting a thin telescope through the mouth into the stomach to view the area and removing the lesion with special equipment.

  2. Does the use of ultrasound of the lumbar spine improve siting of regional anaesthetic needles in pregnant women with a BMI over 30 kg/m 2   at the booking appointment?

    committee was aware that women who are obese are more likely to need anaesthesia during labour and birth. The rates of operative birth...

  3. Video laryngoscopes to help intubation in people with difficult airways (MIB167)

    NICE has developed a medtech innovation briefing (MIB) on video laryngoscopy to help intubation in people with difficult airways .

  4. Superior capsular augmentation for massive rotator cuff tears (IPG619)

    Evidence-based recommendations on superior capsular augmentation for massive rotator cuff tears in adults. This involves using a graft to stabilise the shoulder joint, reduce pain and improve shoulder function.

  5. Bilateral cervicosacropexy (CESA) or vaginosacropexy (VASA) using mesh for pelvic organ prolapse (IPG669)

    Evidence-based recommendations on bilateral cervicosacropexy (CESA) or vaginosacropexy (VASA) using mesh for pelvic organ prolapse in adults. This involves replacing weakened or stretched ligaments that support the uterus and hold the pelvic organs in place with mesh tape.

  6. Trabeculectomy with a biodegradable collagen matrix implant for glaucoma (IPG750)

    Evidence-based recommendations on trabeculectomy with a biodegradable collagen matrix implant for glaucoma. This involves cutting a small flap in the white of the eye and putting a patch over the flap to help healing and prevent scarring. Fluid slowly drains out of the flap and the patch dissolves over time. The aim is to reduce pressure in the eye and slow or stop damage to sight.

  7. Laparoscopic cerclage for cervical incompetence to prevent late miscarriage or preterm birth (IPG639)

    Evidence-based recommendations on laparoscopic cerclage for cervical incompetence to prevent late miscarriage or preterm birth. This involves placing a stitch around the upper part of the cervix to keep it closed.

  8. Image-guided vacuum-assisted excision biopsy of benign breast lesions (IPG156)

    Evidence-based recommendations on image-guided vacuum-assisted excision biopsy for benign breast lesions. This involves inserting a needle with a suction device through a small opening in the breast to remove non-cancerous lumps.

  9. Insertion of a subretinal prosthesis system for retinitis pigmentosa (IPG537)

    Evidence-based recommendations on insertion of a subretinal prosthesis system for retinitis pigmentosa. This involves performing a vitrectomy and implanting a microchip underneath the macula using a transscleral, then subretinal approach.

  10. Mechanical clot retrieval for treating acute ischaemic stroke (IPG548)

    Evidence-based recommendations on mechanical clot retrieval for treating acute ischaemic stroke in adults. This involves using a device to remove the blood clot from the brain to restore normal blood flow.

  11. Endoscopic submucosal dissection of oesophageal dysplasia and neoplasia (IPG355)

    Evidence-based recommendations on endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) of oesophageal dysplasia and neoplasia. This involves inserting a long camera through the mouth into the oesophagus to view the area and removing the abnormal part with special instruments.

  12. Lateral interbody fusion in the lumbar spine for low back pain (IPG574)

    Evidence-based recommendations on lateral interbody fusion in the lumbar spine for low back pain in adults. This involves removing the damaged disc and fixing parts of the spine together, to relieve pain.

  13. Percutaneous laser atherectomy as an adjunct to balloon angioplasty (with or without stenting) for peripheral arterial disease (IPG433)

    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.

  14. Uterine artery embolisation for treating adenomyosis (IPG473)

    Evidence-based recommendations on uterine artery embolisation for treating adenomyosis. This involves injecting small particles to block the blood supply to the adenomyosis (thickening of the womb lining).

  15. Arthroscopic trochleoplasty for patellar instability (IPG474)

    Evidence-based recommendations on arthroscopic trochleoplasty for patellar instability. This involves reshaping the bony anatomy of the trochlea by deepening the groove or elevating the lateral wall.
