Abstract

After the development of guidelines, methods and strategies for their dissemination need to be formulated. The knowledge base on guideline implementation contains a number of methods that have been employed in guideline implementation and dissemination from around the world. The discussion in this chapter considers the strengths and weaknesses of each of these methods. In the discussion of these methods, a number of factors are considered including the costs of development and implementation of guidelines versus their benefits to patient care. In the summary to the chapter, quantitative improvements in guideline adherence are also noted, as well as a discussion of research around improvements in patient outcomes in addition to the process of care.
