  1. Percutaneous laser therapy for fetal tumours (HTG118)

    Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous laser therapy for fetal tumours. This involves inserting a needle through the mother's abdomen to the tumour and using laser energy to shrink it.

  2. Percutaneous radiofrequency ablation for primary or secondary lung cancers (HTG244)

    Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous radiofrequency ablation for primary or secondary lung cancers. This involves inserting 1 or more electrodes (needle-like probes) through the chest into the lung and using an electrical current to produce heat to destroy the cancer cells.

  3. Repetitive short-pulse transscleral cyclophotocoagulation for glaucoma (HTG576)

    Evidence-based recommendations on short-pulse transscleral cyclophotocoagulation for glaucoma. This involves using repeated short pulses of laser energy to destroy some of the cells in the eye that produce fluid.

  4. High-intensity focused ultrasound for glaucoma (HTG527)

    Evidence-based recommendations on high-intensity focused ultrasound for glaucoma in adults. This involves using high-intensity ultrasound to destroy a small amount of the tissue that makes fluid in the eye.

  5. Balloon catheter dilation of paranasal sinus ostia for chronic sinusitis (HTG174)

    Evidence-based recommendations on balloon catheter dilation of paranasal sinus ostia for chronic sinusitis. This involves gently inflating a small balloon, which is introduced through the nose via a flexible tube, to help keep the sinus passages open and unobstructed.

  6. Insertion of a collagen plug to close an abdominal wall enterocutaneous fistula (HTG359)

    Evidence-based recommendations on insertion of a collagen plug to close an abdominal wall enterocutaneous fistula. This involves inserting a collagen plug into the fistula to seal off where it joins the bowel.

  7. Diverticular disease: diagnosis and management (NG147)

    This guideline covers the diagnosis and management of diverticular disease in people aged 18 years and over. It aims to improve diagnosis and care and help people get timely information and advice, including advice about symptoms and when to seek help.

  8. PleuraFlow Active Clearance Technology for maintaining chest tube patency (MIB125)

    NICE has developed a medtech innovation briefing (MIB) on PleuraFlow Active Clearance Technology for maintaining chest tube patency .

  9. Shiley Endotracheal Tube with TaperGuard Cuff for intensive care patients at risk of ventilator‑associated pneumonia (MIB22)

    NICE has developed a medtech innovation briefing (MIB) on the Shiley Endotracheal Tube with TaperGuard Cuff .
