Clinical Standards Committee documents include Consensus Statements and Practice Guidelines.
The CSC also has the responsibility to provide guidance for individuals and sub-committees regarding the development of Consensus Statements or Guidelines on behalf of ISUOG. Therefore, members who are planning to develop such documents must submit a CSC Proposal Form at a very early stage of the process to minimize potential problems that may arise from late review of a nearly completed document that may not fully comply with either the expectations or best interests of the Society.
ISUOG Committee members and ISUOG members interested in submitting a proposal for the development of additional guidelines can click here for further information.
