  1. How many people in the UK are infected with chronic hepatitis B and C and which subgroups of the population do they come from?

    Comes from guidance Hepatitis B and C testing: people at risk of infection Number PH43 Date issued December 2012 Other

  2. What cost-effective interventions can be used to increase hepatitis B case-finding among migrant populations in primary and secondary care?

    Comes from guidance Hepatitis B and C testing: people at risk of infection Number PH43 Date issued December 2012 Other

  3. How cost effective are alternative testing sites, such as community pharmacist programmes, for increasing the number of people who are tested and treated for hepatitis B and C?

    Comes from guidance Hepatitis B and C testing: people at risk of infection Number PH43 Date issued December 2012 Other

  4. What impact does increased knowledge and awareness of hepatitis B and C among the general public have on the uptake of testing and treatment?

    Comes from guidance Hepatitis B and C testing: people at risk of infection Number PH43 Date issued December 2012 Other

  5. High-intensity focused ultrasound for atrial fibrillation in association with other cardiac surgery (IPG184)

    Evidence-based recommendations on high-intensity focused ultrasound for atrial fibrillation in association with other cardiac surgery. This involves using focused ultrasound energy to destroy cardiac tissue and disrupt abnormal electrical impulses.

  6. Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound to promote healing of delayed-union and non-union fractures (IPG623)

    Evidence-based recommendations on low-intensity pulsed ultrasound to promote healing of delayed-union and non-union fractures in adults. This involves using an ultrasound probe on the skin at the site of the fracture.

  7. Fetoscopic prenatal repair for open neural tube defects in the fetus (IPG667)

    Evidence-based recommendations on fetoscopic prenatal repair of open neural tube defects in the fetus. This involves keyhole surgery through the woman’s abdomen to close the gap in the baby’s spine.

  8. Percutaneous thoracic duct embolisation for persistent chyle leak (IPG755)

    Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous thoracic duct embolisation for persistent chyle leak. In this procedure, under general anaesthesia, ultrasound and X-rays are used to create an image of the thoracic duct and find the leak. Then, using a needle, a tube is inserted through the abdominal wall (percutaneous) and guided into the thoracic duct. Small metal coils and medical glue are inserted through the tube and used to plug the leak (embolisation). The aim is to stop the leak.

  9. Caval valve implantation for tricuspid regurgitation (IPG791)

    Evidence-based recommendations on caval valve implantation for tricuspid regurgitation in adults. This involves implanting valves into 1 or both caval veins without disturbing the tricuspid valve.

  10. Single-step scaffold insertion for repairing symptomatic chondral knee defects (IPG793)

    Evidence-based recommendations on single-step scaffold insertion for repairing symptomatic chondral knee defects. This involves inserting a scaffold into the damaged area of the knee to support regrowth and repair of the cartilage.

  11. Transurethral water-jet ablation for lower urinary tract symptoms caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia (IPG770)

    Evidence-based recommendations on transurethral water-jet ablation for lower urinary tract symptoms caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia. This involves injecting a high-speed jet of water into the prostate to destroy some of the prostate tissue and widen the urethra.

  12. 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.

  13. How can the uptake of hepatitis C treatment be improved? What factors influence whether or not specific groups at increased risk will begin and complete hepatitis C treatment?

    Comes from guidance Hepatitis B and C testing: people at risk of infection Number PH43 Date issued December 2012 Other
