Clinical Practice Guidelines
The documents formerly titled Clinical Practice Guidelines are no longer published by ACFAS, as they no longer align with the Institute of Medicine's standards for Clinical Practice Guideline development.
The resources listed below are outdated versions of previous ACFAS Clinical Practice Guidelines. While they retain their original titles, they should not be regarded as current or valid clinical practice guidelines, as the information is now obsolete and may no longer be appropriate for application in clinical settings.
