The Journal of Clinical Ethics
B K Redman

Abstract

In order to serve the purposes expected of them, practice guidelines must be more than summaries of available research; they must also challenge the values that are implicit in the way practice questions have been framed and outcomes have been chosen. The IOM has defined desirable attributes of practice guidelines, focused on the characteristics of measurement and implementation. It is also desirable for guidelines to meet certain ethical criteria.
