Abstract:
Clinical guidelines are bridges between clinical research and patient care. In Germany, medical societies and university medicine are the main bodies responsible for the development, dissemination, and updating of high quality guidelines. The high demand on these to be based on evidence, clinical judgement, and structured consensus requires considerable resources. Currently, there is an inequality between the resources available to university hospitals and the incentives they receive. Financial and scientific recognition of the professionals, who develop and disseminate these guidelines, should be improved.
