3.3 Sources of clinical practice guidelines

Often, specific guidelines can only be retrieved through local websites of scientific associations or government agencies. It is therefore recommended to combine a Medline search (with specific filters for guidelines) with a search of the following:

• International Guideline Library (G-I-N): database of the Guideline International Network (KCE is member of GIN and has full access to the records)
• EBMpracticenet: DUODECIM guidelines, free access in Belgium, funded by RIZIV-INAMI, translation in Dutch and French; adaptation to Belgian context ongoing
• More sources of guidelines are available on BIBKCE under Databases, Practice Guidelines or  Practice Guideline, Publishers' catalogue
