  1. Balloon catheter dilation of paranasal sinus ostia for chronic sinusitis (HTG174)

    Evidence-based recommendations on balloon catheter dilation of paranasal sinus ostia for chronic sinusitis. This involves gently inflating a small balloon, which is introduced through the nose via a flexible tube, to help keep the sinus passages open and unobstructed.

  2. Lumbar infusion test for the investigation of normal pressure hydrocephalus (HTG169)

    Evidence-based recommendations on the lumbar infusion test for the investigation of normal pressure hydrocephalus. This involves inserting a lumbar needle into the spinal sac, recording the pressure of the CSF as fluid is infused into the sac.

  3. Insertion of pleuro–amniotic shunt for fetal pleural effusion (HTG123)

    Evidence-based recommendations on inserting a pleuro-amniotic shunt to drain pleural effusions in a fetus during pregnancy. This involves inserting a drainage tube through the fetal chest wall into the pleural space, allowing fluid to drain into the amniotic cavity.

  4. Percutaneous laser therapy for fetal tumours (HTG118)

    Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous laser therapy for fetal tumours. This involves inserting a needle through the mother's abdomen to the tumour and using laser energy to shrink it.

  5. Living-donor lung transplantation for end-stage lung disease (HTG111)

    Evidence-based recommendations on living-donor lung transplantation for end-stage lung disease. This involves removing a lung from each of the two donors and replacing the recipient's lungs with the donor lungs.

  6. Percutaneous endoscopic colostomy (HTG105)

    Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous endoscopic colostomy. This involves placing a plastic tube in the bowel that runs back through a small opening in the abdomen to allow waste to pass through to a drainage bag worn outside the body.

  7. Laparoscopic pyeloplasty (HTG22)

    Evidence-based recommendations on laparoscopic pyeloplasty. This involves refashioning the pelviureteric junction (PUJ), operating through several small incisions (keyhole surgery).

  8. Interventional Correction of Superior Sinus Venosus Defect and Partial Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Drainage

    Awaiting development Reference number: GID-IPG10419 Expected publication date: TBC

  9. Middle meningeal artery embolisation for chronic subdural haematomas

    In development Reference number: GID-IPG10440 Expected publication date:  19 November 2026

  10. PeritX peritoneal catheter drainage system for vacuum-assisted drainage of treatment-resistant, recurrent malignant ascites (MTG9)

    We have moved medical technologies guidance 9 to become HealthTech guidance 282. This is to better reflect the NICE HealthTech programme which combines the former NICE Diagnostics Assessment programme, Interventional Procedures programme and Medical Technologies Evaluation programme and to help you find relevant content more quickly. The guidance itself has not changed.

  11. Drainage, irrigation and fibrinolytic therapy (DRIFT) for post-haemorrhagic hydrocephalus in preterm infants (IPG412)

    Interventional procedures, IPG412 - Issued: November 2011 --> We have moved interventional procedures guidance 412 to become HealthTech guidance 276. This is to better reflect the NICE HealthTech programme which combines the former NICE Diagnostics Assessment programme, Interventional Procedures programme and Medical Technologies Evaluation programme and to help you find relevant content more quickly. The guidance itself has not changed.

  12. Subcutaneous implantation of a battery-powered catheter drainage system for managing refractory and recurrent ascites (IPG479)

    Interventional procedures, IPG479 - Issued: February 2014 --> This guidance has been updated and replaced by NICE interventional procedures guidance 631.

  13. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided gallbladder drainage for acute cholecystitis when surgery is not an option (IPG764)

    We have moved interventional procedures guidance 764 to become HealthTech guidance 683. This is to better reflect the NICE HealthTech programme which combines the former NICE Diagnostics Assessment programme, Interventional Procedures programme and Medical Technologies Evaluation programme and to help you find relevant content more quickly. The guidance itself has not changed.

  14. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided biliary drainage for biliary obstruction (IPG761)

    We have moved interventional procedures guidance 761 to become HealthTech guidance 673. This is to better reflect the NICE HealthTech programme which combines the former NICE Diagnostics Assessment programme, Interventional Procedures programme and Medical Technologies Evaluation programme and to help you find relevant content more quickly. The guidance itself has not changed.

  15. Tunnelled peritoneal drainage catheter insertion for refractory ascites in cirrhosis (IPG746)

    We have moved interventional procedures guidance 746 to become HealthTech guidance 648. This is to better reflect the NICE HealthTech programme which combines the former NICE Diagnostics Assessment programme, Interventional Procedures programme and Medical Technologies Evaluation programme and to help you find relevant content more quickly. The guidance itself has not changed.
