A new "forum" method for technology assessment and practice guidelines was developed. This approach effectively evaluates new medical technologies and guides their clinical use, proving valuable for healthcare decision-making.

Area of Science:

  • Health Services Research
  • Medical Technology Assessment
  • Clinical Practice Guidelines

Background:

  • The U.S. National Institutes of Health developed a consensus development approach.
  • A need exists for structured methods to assess emerging medical technologies.
  • Existing methods may not adequately inform practice guidelines and policy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a novel group-judgment process, the "forum" method (technology assessment and practice guidelines forum).
  • To assess the validity and acceptability of the forum method.
  • To develop practice guidelines for technology use.

Main Methods:

  • Modified the U.S. National Institutes of Health consensus development approach.
  • Pilot study focused on total parenteral nutrition.

  • Evaluated process validity and recommendation acceptability via participant and non-participant surveys.

    • Main Results:

    • The forum method successfully described the state of knowledge on total parenteral nutrition.
    • Practice guidelines for total parenteral nutrition were developed.
    • Surveys indicated the process and recommendations were valid and acceptable.

    Conclusions:

    • The forum method is a valuable tool for technology assessment.
    • This approach effectively defines the clinical role of technologies.
    • The forum method aids in developing evidence-based practice guidelines.
