Draft recommendations

1.1 Evidence on the safety of pressurised intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy for peritoneal carcinomatosis shows well-recognised, serious side effects. Evidence on its efficacy is inadequate in quality and quantity. Therefore, this procedure should only be used in the context of research.

1.2 Further research should report details of patient selection, including type of tumour and quality-of-life outcomes.
