The Effective Health Care Program is dedicated to fulfilling the need for reliable and practical data to inform decisions about health care. It does that through high-quality research and by developing information for decisionmakers, including consumers.
Between 1992 and 1996, the Agency for Health Care Policy and
Research (now the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality)
sponsored development of a series of 19 clinical practice guidelines.
Electronic versions of the consumer guidelines listed are
available
online at the National Library of Medicine. You may download
or print these patient guides in sections using your Web browser
for personal use only. Requests to further reproduce these
documents in print or electronic form should be sent to info@ahrq.gov.
Other topics in this series are now outdated. However, electronic
versions are available for historical and informational purposes
in the Clinical Practice Guideline
Archive.
