SERIES  NOTE


Current Bibliographies in Medicine (CBM) is a continuation in part of
the National Library of Medicine's Literature Search Series, which
ceased in 1987 with No. 87-15.  In 1989 it also subsumed the
Specialized Bibliography Series.  Each bibliography in the new series
covers a distinct subject area of biomedicine and is intended to fulfill a
current awareness function.  Citations are usually derived from
searching a variety of online databases.  NLM databases utilized include
MEDLINE, AVLINE, BIOETHICSLINE, CANCERLIT,
CATLINE, HEALTH, POPLINE and TOXLINE.  The only
criterion for the inclusion of a particular published work is its relevance
to the topic being presented; the format, ownership, or location of the
material is not considered.

PRACTICE GUIDELINES


The 1989 amendments to the Public Health Service Act called for the
National Library of Medicine (NLM) and the Agency for Health Care
Policy and Research (AHCPR) to work together to develop and
enhance information services in health services research.  In response to
this mandate, NLM established its Health Services Research
Information Program.  NLM's highest priorities for this program are to
1) enhance NLM's basic collection development, organization, and
dissemination services to provide better coverage of the results of
health services research, and 2) promote the use of these services by
the health services research community.  One area specifically targeted
in this program is the development and dissemination of information on
practice guidelines.

Practice guidelines have been known by a number of different names
including practice standards, practice recommendations, policies,
practice parameters, practice options, clinical indicators, and many
more.  All have the basic premise of being a set statement, direction, or
principle to assist the health care practitioner with patient care
decisions about the appropriate diagnostic, therapeutic, or other clinical
procedure for specific clinical circumstances.  They may be developed
by government agencies at any level, institutions, organizations such as
professional societies or governing boards, or by the convening of
experts on a panel.

"There is growing interest in the use of practice guidelines for
physicians as a means of reducing inappropriate care, controlling
geographic variations in practice patterns, and making more effective
use of health care resources.  Recent developments at the national
health policy level suggest that practice guidelines will play an
increasingly prominent role in the practice of medicine."*  For the
physician trying to locate published practice guidelines, the task is made
difficult by the variety of publication routes employed.  Some
government agencies and medical societies publish their practice
guidelines as monographs  and technical reports, while others feel the
best avenue to disseminate their guidelines is through the professional
journals.  Textbooks in the various clinical medical fields are also
excellent sources of practice guidelines.  The most difficult ones for the
physician to locate are those published in the professional journal
literature due to the variation in names used to describe them.

This bibliography contains selected references to articles containing
practice guidelines published in the professional journal literature for
the years 1985 through 1992.  The actual articles were reviewed to
determine if they contained a practice guideline.  Citations cover all
aspects of practice guidelines and are arranged by 26 broad subject
categories.  Each reference is cited only once under the heading which
best describes the main topic of the article.  The emphasis is on English
language articles but non-English references indexed to the publication
type "practice guideline," which started in 1992, are included.  All
citations in this bibliography have been updated in MEDLINE with
the publication type "practice guideline."

GRATEFUL MED

To make online searching easier and more efficient, the Library offers
GRATEFUL MED, microcomputer-based software that provides a
user-friendly interface to most NLM databases.  This software was
specifically developed for health professionals and features multiple
choice menus and "fill in the blank" screens for easy search preparation. 
GRATEFUL MED runs on an IBM PC (or IBM-compatible) with
DOS 2.0 or a Macintosh, and requires a Hayes (or Hayes-compatible)
modem.  It may be purchased from the National Technical Information
Service in Springfield, Virginia, for $29.95 (plus $3.00 per order for
shipping).  For your convenience, an order blank has been enclosed at
the back of this bibliography.



SAMPLE  CITATION


Citations in this bibliographic series are formatted according to the
rules established for Index Medicus*.  A sample journal citation
appears below.  For journal articles written in a foreign language, the
English translation of the title is placed in brackets, and the language of
publication is shown by a three letter abbreviation appearing at the end
of the citation.  Note also that a colon (:) may appear within an author's
name or article title.  The NLM computer system automatically inserts
this symbol in the place of a diacritical mark.
