  1. Intranasal phototherapy for allergic rhinitis (HTG473)

    Evidence-based recommendations on intranasal phototherapy for allergic rhinitis in adults. This involves using light to reduce inflammation inside the nose.

  2. Insertion of customised exposed titanium implants, without soft tissue cover, for complex orofacial reconstruction (HTG313)

    Evidence-based recommendations on insertion of customised exposed titanium implants, without soft tissue cover, for complex orofacial reconstruction. This involves making the titanium implants specially to fit the person using a model of their face.

  3. Prostatitis (acute): antimicrobial prescribing (NG110)

    This guideline sets out an antimicrobial prescribing strategy for acute prostatitis. It aims to optimise antibiotic use and reduce antibiotic resistance.

  4. Endovascular stent insertion for intracranial atherosclerotic disease (HTG288)

    Evidence-based recommendations on endovascular stent insertion for intracranial atherosclerotic disease. This involves inflating a balloon catheter inserted into an artery in the arm or leg, and positioning a stent in the narrowing to maintain improved blood flow.

  5. Transpupillary thermotherapy for age-related macular degeneration (HTG31)

    Evidence-based recommendations on transpupillary thermotherapy for age-related macular degeneration. This involves using a laser to heat and seal up the blood vessels that are causing the problems.

  6. Hip fracture: management (CG124)

    This guideline covers managing hip fracture in adults. It aims to improve care from the time people aged 18 and over are admitted to hospital through to when they return to the community. Recommendations emphasise the importance of early surgery and coordinating care through a multidisciplinary Hip Fracture Programme to help people recover faster and regain their mobility.

  7. Interstitial laser therapy for breast cancer (HTG55)

    Evidence-based recommendations on interstitial laser therapy for breast cancer. This involves using laser energy to destroying the cancer cells.

  8. Radiotherapy for age-related macular degeneration (HTG24)

    Evidence-based recommendations on radiotherapy for age-related macular degeneration. This involves using radiation to destroy the new blood vessels, with the aim of slowing down sight loss.

  9. Deep brain stimulation for refractory epilepsy in adults (HTG550)

    Evidence-based recommendations on deep brain stimulation for refractory epilepsy in adults. This involves implanting an electrical stimulator in the brain.

  10. Stereotactic radiosurgery for trigeminal neuralgia (HTG608)

    Evidence-based recommendations on stereotactic radiosurgery for trigeminal neuralgia in adults. This involves focusing radiation on the trigeminal nerve to damage it, thereby relieving pain.

  11. Crohn's disease: management (NG129)

    This guideline covers managing Crohn’s disease in children, young people and adults. It aims to reduce people’s symptoms and maintain or improve their quality of life.

  12. Targeted muscle reinnervation for managing limb amputation pain (HTG750)

    Evidence-based recommendations on targeted muscle reinnervation for managing limb amputation pain. This involves attaching nerves that were cut during limb amputation to other nerves in nearby muscles.

  13. 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).

  14. Ex-situ machine perfusion for extracorporeal preservation of livers for transplantation (HTG496)

    Evidence-based recommendations on ex-situ machine perfusion for extracorporeal preservation of livers for transplantation in people of all ages. This involves using a machine to give an oxygenated solution to the donor liver until it is transplanted.

  15. Endoscopic radiofrequency ablation for squamous dysplasia of the oesophagus (HTG346)

    Evidence-based recommendations on endoscopic radiofrequency ablation for squamous dysplasia of the oesophagus. This involves using radiofrequency (heat) energy to destroy the abnormal cells and to promote the growth of healthy squamous cells.
