It is not the intention of ISN to develop its own guidelines; however — through its Clinical Practice Guidelines Committee — ISN undertakes the following:
- Evaluation of guidelines with particular emphasis on their impact on local practice.
- Formulation of recommendations back to the organizations issuing guidelines.
- Encouragement to develop guidelines focused on areas of unmet need.
- Endorsement of guidelines.
