  5. Extracorporeal photopheresis for Crohn's disease (HTG182)

    Evidence-based recommendations on extracorporeal photopheresis for Crohn's disease. This involves collecting blood from the person, separating the white blood cells from the whole blood, treating with ultraviolet light and re-infusing into the person. The aim is to produce a generalised immune response against the cells that cause the inflammation.

  6. Faecal incontinence in adults (QS54)
