Abstract

Abstract

Clinical practice guidelines for MS were developed initially for help in managing symptoms before many of the disease modifying therapies were available. Typically guidelines synthesize the current available literature and include empirical evidence and expert opinion. The goals of practice guidelines are to improve patient outcomes, enhance quality assurance and improve education for care providers as well as identify additional key questions that remain to be investigated.

Guidelines can be a tool for healthcare providers to assist them in clinical decision making. A multidisciplinary panel created most guidelines This session will highlight many of the available guidelines that were developed by multidisciplinary panels with input from nursing.
