  1. Hypertension in adults: diagnosis and management (NG136)

    This guideline covers identifying and treating primary hypertension (high blood pressure) in people aged 18 and over, including people with type 2 diabetes. It aims to reduce the risk of cardiovascular problems such as heart attacks and strokes by helping healthcare professionals to diagnose hypertension accurately and treat it effectively.

  2. Endovascular aneurysm sealing for abdominal aortic aneurysm (IPG547)

      March 2019: We have withdrawn the guidance because the CE mark for the Nellix Endovascular Aneurysm Sealing (EVAS) System has been withdrawn. Endologix is recalling unused stock. The MHRA recommends enhanced patient surveillance (see MDA/2019/002) because of a high risk of the graft failing beyond 2 years after implantation.

  3. Novel endovascular interventions: What is the clinical and cost effectiveness of novel endovascular techniques and devices such as coated coils, endoluminal flow diverters and intrasaccular devices to treat aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage?

    recommendation for research, see the rationale section on managing the culprit aneurysm. Full details of the evidence and the...

  4. Irreversible electroporation for treating pancreatic cancer (HTG437)

    Evidence-based recommendations on irreversible electroporation for treating pancreatic cancer. This involves inserting special needles into the tumour in the pancreas and using short electrical pulses to destroy the cancer cells.

  5. Blood transfusion (QS138)

    This quality standard covers the general principles of blood transfusion in adults, young people and children over 1 year old. It describes high-quality care in priority areas for improvement. It does not cover specific conditions that blood transfusion is used for.

  6. Cardiometabolic disease prevention and treatment guidelines

    Guideline Updates planned and in progress Abdominal aortic aneurysm: diagnosis and management Acute coronary syndromes -

  7. What are the most effective and cost-effective frequencies for monitoring people with unruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) of different diameters, and what is the optimal AAA threshold size (inner-to-inner maximum anterior-posterior diameter on ultrasound) for repair?

    applicable) More frequent monitoring increases the chances of identifying aneurysms that have grown large enough to be considered for...

  8. Percutaneous endoscopic laser balloon pulmonary vein isolation for atrial fibrillation (HTG417)

    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.
