  1. Open reduction of slipped capital femoral epiphysis (IPG511)

    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.

  2. Percutaneous electrothermal treatment of the intervertebral disc annulus for low back pain and sciatica (IPG544)

    Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous electrothermal treatment of the intervertebral disc annulus for low back pain and sciatica. This involves delivering heat energy to the damaged disc annulus.

  3. Balloon catheter insertion for Bartholin's cyst or abscess (IPG323)

    Evidence-based recommendations on balloon catheter insertion for Bartholin's cyst or abscess. This involves making a passage from the cyst or abscess through which the gland can drain by inflating a small, specially designed balloon.

  4. Transabdominal artificial bowel sphincter implantation for faecal incontinence (IPG276)

    Evidence-based recommendations on transabdominal artifical bowel sphincter implantation for faecal incontinence. This involves inserting an artificial sphincter through a cut in the abdomen.

  5. Percutaneous (non-thoracoscopic) epicardial catheter radiofrequency ablation for atrial fibrillation (IPG294)

    Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous (non-thoracoscopic) epicardial catheter radiofrequency ablation for atrial fibrillation. This involves using heat to destroy selected areas of the heart to prevent the abnormal electrical impulses responsible for atrial fibrillation.

  6. Electrohydraulic lithotripsy for difficult-to-treat bile duct stones (IPG698)

    Evidence-based recommendations on electrohydraulic lithotripsy for difficult-to-treat bile duct stones in adults. This involves breaking up the stone with soundwaves.

  7. Laser lithotripsy for difficult-to-treat bile duct stones (IPG699)

    Evidence-based recommendations on laser lithotripsy for difficult-to-treat bile duct stones in adults. This involves breaking up the stones using laser light.

  8. Minimally invasive radical hysterectomy for early stage cervical cancer (IPG686)

    Evidence-based recommendations on minimally invasive radical hysterectomy for early stage cervical cancer. This involves removing the uterus, cervix, upper vagina and some lymph nodes.

  9. Epiretinal brachytherapy for wet age-related macular degeneration (IPG415)

    Evidence-based recommendations on epiretinal brachytherapy for wet age related macular degeneration. This involves using radiation therapy used to destroy the new blood vessels.

  10. Electrochemotherapy for metastases in the skin from tumours of non-skin origin and melanoma (IPG446)

    Evidence-based recommendations on electrochemotherapy for metastases in the skin from tumours of non-skin origin and melanoma. This involves applying short, powerful pulses of electricity to the tumour, allowing an anticancer drug to pass through into the cells.

  11. Stereotactic radiosurgery for trigeminal neuralgia (IPG715)

    Evidence-based recommendations on stereotactic radiosurgery for trigeminal neuralgia in adults. This involves focusing radiation on the trigeminal nerve to damage it, thereby relieving pain.

  12. Synthetic cartilage implant insertion for first metatarsophalangeal joint osteoarthritis (hallux rigidus) (IPG727)

    Evidence-based recommendations on synthetic cartilage implant insertion for first metatarsophalangeal joint osteoarthritis (hallux rigidus). This involves replacing damaged cartilage with an artificial (synthetic) implant.

  13. Caval valve implantation for tricuspid regurgitation (IPG791)

    Evidence-based recommendations on caval valve implantation for tricuspid regurgitation in adults. This involves implanting valves into 1 or both caval veins without disturbing the tricuspid valve.

  14. Carotid artery stent placement for symptomatic extracranial carotid stenosis (IPG389)

    Evidence-based recommendations on carotid artery stent placement for symptomatic extracranial carotid stenosis. This involves using a metal mesh called a stent to widen the narrowed carotid artery.

  15. Subcutaneous automated low-flow pump implantation for refractory ascites caused by cirrhosis (IPG631)

    Evidence-based recommendations on subcutaneous automated low-flow pump implantation for refractory ascites in adults. This involves inserting a pump under the skin to move excess fluid from the abdomen to the bladder, where it is passed in the urine.
