Interest in clinical guidelines is expanding significantly. Clinical guidelines have been developed by the Agency for Health Care Policy and Research, specialty organizations representing almost every health-care discipline, and individual agencies and facilities. Clinical guidelines may be used in the development of practice and patient care standards and within care delivery models such as case management. Clinical guidelines offer professional nurses an opportunity to define their practice and their contributions to outcomes-based patient care. Clinical guidelines also may enable interdisciplinary continuous quality improvement to ensure ongoing optimization of care delivery and patient outcome. Therefore, clinical guidelines can be used to design patient care that is truly driven by patient need and that empowers optimal contributions by nurses and all other members of the caregiving team.
对临床指南的关注正在显著扩大。医疗保健政策与研究机构、代表几乎每个医疗保健学科的专业组织以及个别机构和设施都制定了临床指南。临床指南可用于制定实践和患者护理标准，并应用于诸如病例管理等护理提供模式中。临床指南为专业护士提供了一个机会，来界定他们的实践以及他们对基于结果的患者护理的贡献。临床指南还可能促使跨学科的持续质量改进，以确保护理提供和患者结果的持续优化。因此，临床指南可用于设计真正由患者需求驱动的患者护理，并使护士和护理团队的所有其他成员能够做出最佳贡献。
