Member Forum 2 (open to all AACAP members)
Practice Parameter Member Forum

The development and dissemination of clinical practice guidelines is one of the most important activities for professional medical associations, like AACAP. Over the past several decades, the clinical guideline development process has become increasingly rigorous, in accordance with evolving principles promulgated by influential professional organizations like the American Medical Association.

Today, “guidelines for guidelines” have reached new heights of specificity and precision, generating the imperative for parallel changes in the guideline development process. AACAP and the Committee on Quality Issues, chaired by Heather J. Walter, M.D., and Oscar G. Bukstein, M.D., have addressed this imperative by developing a new clinical practice guideline development process in accordance with new Institute of Medicine standards.

This Member Forum is an opportunity to learn more about the new AACAP clinical practice guideline development process and the important role of AACAP members as active participants.
