[Evidence-based clinical practice guidelines in oral care 2: process and content of evidence-based guideline
Abstract:
In 2014, an advisory report was published by a national working committee concerning how the current, applied method of evidence-based guideline development in healthcare can be used in oral care in a national guideline programme. In an independent Institute of Knowledge Translation in Oral Care, as yet to be established, primary and secondary oral care providers will participate in the programme in order to improve the quality of oral care in the Netherlands. With the launching of the Institute of Knowledge Translation in Oral Care, clinical guideline development will have the benefit of a structural approach, in which 3 successive steps can be distinguished: preparation, development and authorisation. In each of these steps, oral care providers and associations will be actively involved. In this way the aim is to give as much consideration as possible to the needs of those in the field of oral care in the choice of topics for guideline development and to secure the specific character of oral care in the actual establishment of guidelines for clinical practice.
