Part 1: Can ‘living’ guidelines be made, and if so, will they be used?

Keeping best practice guidelines up-to-date with rapidly emerging research evidence is one of the key challenges to delivering evidence-based care. ‘Living guidelines’ approaches enable continual incorporation of new research, assisting healthcare professionals to apply the latest evidence to their clinical practice.

However, our understanding of how living guidelines are developed, maintained and applied is limited.

The Stroke Foundation in Australia was one of the first organisations to apply living guideline development methods for their Living Stroke Guidelines (LSGs), presenting a unique opportunity to evaluate the process and impact of this novel approach.
