  1. Minimally invasive fusionless posterior-approach surgery to correct idiopathic scoliosis in children and young people (IPG765)

    Evidence-based recommendations on minimally invasive fusionless posterior-approach surgery to correct idiopathic scoliosis in children and young people. This involves inserting a rod along the spine through a small cut in the back.

  2. Synthetic cartilage implant insertion for first metatarsophalangeal joint osteoarthritis (hallux rigidus) (IPG727)

    Evidence-based recommendations on synthetic cartilage implant insertion for first metatarsophalangeal joint osteoarthritis (hallux rigidus). This involves replacing damaged cartilage with an artificial (synthetic) implant.

  3. Low-energy contact X-ray brachytherapy for rectal cancer (IPG809)

    Evidence-based recommendations on low-energy contact X-ray brachytherapy for rectal cancer. This involves inserting an X-ray tube through the anus into the rectum. The tube is placed in contact with the tumour and releases a low dose of X-ray radiation (brachytherapy) directly to it.

  4. VA ECMO for severe acute heart failure in adults (IPG807)

    Evidence-based recommendations on venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) for severe acute heart failure in adults. This involves using an artificial lung to oxygenate the blood outside the body.

  5. VA ECMO for extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) in adults with refractory cardiac arrest (IPG808)

    Evidence-based recommendations on VA ECMO for extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) in adults with refractory cardiac arrest. This involves using an artificial lung to oxygenate the blood outside the body.

  6. VA ECMO for postcardiotomy cardiogenic shock in adults (IPG810)

    Evidence-based recommendations on venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) for postcardiotomy cardiogenic shock in adults. This involves using an artificial lung to oxygenate the blood outside the body.

  7. Supercapsular percutaneously assisted total hip arthroplasty for osteoarthritis (IPG726)

    Evidence-based recommendations on supercapsular percutaneously assisted total hip arthroplasty for osteoarthritis in adults. This involves replacing a hip using smaller cuts than are used in standard surgery.

  8. Prosthetic intervertebral disc replacement in the cervical spine (IPG341)

    Evidence-based recommendations on prosthetic intervertebral disc replacement in the cervical spine. This involves removing the damaged disc and inserting an artificial disc in its place.

  9. Insertion of an epiretinal prosthesis for retinitis pigmentosa (IPG519)

    Evidence-based recommendations on insertion of an epiretinal prosthesis for retinitis pigmentosa. This involves inserting an implant into the eye that receives data from a small camera on the person's glasses and then stimulates healthy cells in the retina to see basic images.

  10. Suture fixation of acute disruption of the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis (IPG521)

    Evidence-based recommendations on suture fixation of acute disruption of the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis. This involves threading a suture through a tunnel made in the bones (tibia and fibula) and tying the ends together to fix the joint.

  11. Optical coherence tomography to guide percutaneous coronary intervention (IPG481)

    Evidence-based recommendations on optical coherence tomography to guide percutaneous coronary intervention. This involves using near-infrared light to produce high-resolution images of blood vessel walls.

  12. Miniature lens system implantation for advanced age-related macular degeneration (IPG565)

    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.

  13. Insertion of a subretinal prosthesis system for retinitis pigmentosa (IPG537)

    Evidence-based recommendations on insertion of a subretinal prosthesis system for retinitis pigmentosa. This involves performing a vitrectomy and implanting a microchip underneath the macula using a transscleral, then subretinal approach.

  14. Ultrasound‑enhanced, catheter‑directed thrombolysis for deep vein thrombosis (IPG523)

    Evidence-based recommendations on ultrasound enhanced catheter-directed thrombolysis for deep vein thrombosis. This involves using ultrasound waves and a drug to break up the clot.

  15. Ultrasound‑enhanced, catheter‑directed thrombolysis for pulmonary embolism (IPG524)

    Evidence-based recommendations on ultrasound enhanced catheter-directed thrombolysis for pulmonary embolism. This involves using ultrasound waves and a drug to break up the clot.
