  1. Extracorporeal shockwave therapy for Achilles tendinopathy (HTG426)

    Evidence-based recommendations on extracorporeal shockwave therapy for treating Achilles tendinopathy in adults. This involves passing shockwaves through the skin to the affected area.

  2. Epiduroscopic lumbar discectomy through the sacral hiatus for sciatica (HTG425)

    Evidence-based recommendations on epiduroscopic lumbar discectomy through the sacral hiatus for sciatica in adults. This involves removing the part of the spinal disc pressing against the spinal nerve, to relieve pain.

  3. Single-anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy for treating morbid obesity (HTG423)

    Evidence-based recommendations on single-anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy for treating morbid obesity. This involves reducing the size of the stomach and small intestine to reduce the amount of food absorbed.

  4. Percutaneous insertion of craniocaudal expandable implants for vertebral compression fracture (HTG422)

    Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous insertion of craniocaudal expandable implants for vertebral compression fracture in adults. This involves inserting an implant into the spine to restore the vertebral height.

  5. Endoscopic transluminal pancreatic necrosectomy (HTG421)

    Evidence-based recommendations on endoscopic transluminal pancreatic necrosectomy in adults. This involves removing dead tissue from the pancreas.

  6. Insertion of hydrogel keratoprosthesis (HTG42)

    Evidence-based recommendations on insertion of hydrogel keratoprosthesis. This involves putting an artificial cornea into place in a pocket made in the front part of the eye.

  7. Single-incision short sling mesh insertion for stress urinary incontinence in women (HTG419)

    Evidence-based recommendations on single-incision short sling mesh insertion for stress urinary incontinence in women. This involves putting 2 short slings around the tube that carries urine from the bladder to support it.

  8. Miniature lens system implantation for advanced age-related macular degeneration (HTG418)

    Evidence-based recommendations on miniature lens system implantation for advanced age-related macular degeneration. This involves implanting an artificial lens system into 1 eye only.

  9. Percutaneous endoscopic laser balloon pulmonary vein isolation for atrial fibrillation (HTG417)

    Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous endoscopic laser balloon pulmonary vein isolation for atrial fibrillation in adults. This involves destroying the tissue causing atrial fibrillation using laser energy.

  10. Ultrasound-guided percutaneous radiofrequency ablation for benign thyroid nodules (HTG416)

    Evidence-based recommendations on ultrasound-guided percutaneous radiofrequency ablation for treating benign thyroid nodules in adults. This involves using heat energy to destroy tissue in the nodules.

  11. Transcervical extracorporeal reverse flow neuroprotection for reducing the risk of stroke during carotid artery stenting (HTG415)

    Evidence-based recommendations on transcervical extracorporeal reverse flow neuroprotection for reducing the risk of stroke during carotid artery stenting in adults. This involves reversing blood flow away from the brain and filtering the blood to remove any debris.

  12. Endovenous mechanochemical ablation for varicose veins (HTG414)

    Evidence-based recommendations on endovenous mechanochemical ablation for varicose veins. This involves using a rotating wire and chemical to close the varicose vein.

  13. Endobronchial valve insertion to reduce lung volume in emphysema (HTG457)

    Evidence-based recommendations on endobronchial valve insertion to reduce lung volume in emphysema. This involves placing small one-way valves in some airways leading to damaged parts of the lungs.

  14. Transvaginal mesh repair of anterior or posterior vaginal wall prolapse (HTG456)

    Evidence-based recommendations on transvaginal mesh repair of anterior or posterior vaginal wall prolapse. This involves inserting a mesh to replace tissue that has weakened and caused the pelvic organs to drop down (prolapse) into the vagina.

  15. Hypoglossal nerve stimulation for moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnoea (HTG455)

    Evidence-based recommendations on hypoglossal nerve stimulation for moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnoea in adults. This involves implanting a device under the skin in the chest and connecting it to a nerve under the tongue (hypoglossal nerve).
