# Clinical Guidelines Search & Retrieval

## Guideline Hierarchy

Not all guidelines carry equal weight. Evaluate sources in this order:

1. **NICE and WHO** — Evidence-graded, regularly updated, rigorous systematic review process. NICE guidelines include explicit recommendation strength (e.g., "offer" vs "consider").
2. **Society guidelines (AHA, ADA, NCCN, SIGN)** — Expert-consensus panels within a specialty. May lag behind the latest evidence by 1-3 years. Strong within their domain but narrower scope.
3. **Aggregator databases (TRIP, OpenAlex)** — Index guidelines from multiple societies. Good for breadth and discovery, but you must verify the original source.
4. **Literature databases (PubMed, EuropePMC)** — Return guideline-related publications, not curated guideline text. Useful as a fallback, not a primary source.

**Always check publication date.** A 2015 guideline may be superseded by a 2024 update. When presenting results, include the year prominently and note if newer guidance may exist.
