OBJECTIVE: To review and summarize past activities of guidelines development at the Agency for Health Care Policy and Research (AHCPR) to enhance understanding of its new role and facilitate the development of new guidelines. DATA SYNTHESIS: The current Congressional climate and past criticisms of the guidelines development process have caused the AHCPR to reevaluate the way it produces guidelines. This assessment has resulted in the AHCPR restructuring its role to serve now as a science partner with private and public organizations. CONCLUSIONS: The development and role of evidence-based clinical practice guidelines are discussed, and the new roles of the AHCPR are described.

The objective of this paper is to review the principles, methods and issues behind the development of clinical practice guidelines. Practice guidelines have been defined as “systematically developed statements to assist practitioner and patient decisions about appropriate health care for specific clinical circumstances”. The ultimate goal of guidelines is to improve patient outcomes; however, they may also be used as tools to decrease health care costs, improve medical education and enhance quality assurance. Evidence-based guidelines use explicit methods to link recommendations to the quality of the underlying research. Following development of the guideline, implementation and evaluation are key steps. The ultimate aim of guideline development is to influence physician knowledge, attitudes and behaviour.
