The ECRI Institute, an independent, nonprofit patient safety organization, has launched the ECRI Guidelines Trust, a portal to vetted, evidence-based guideline briefs and scorecards.
The healthcare community has free access to the website, which will grow over time as more clinical guidelines become available.
ECRI Institute developed the new resource in response to requests from healthcare professionals after substantial federal funding cuts forced the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) to shut down the National Guideline Clearinghouse™ (NGC).
The ECRI Guidelines Trust features new summaries of evidence-based guidelines from participating guideline developers, medical specialty societies, and other healthcare organizations. All Guideline Briefs include ECRI’s new TRUST Scorecard, which evaluates the rigor and transparency of a guideline to see how it stacks up against the Institute of Medicine standards for trustworthiness. ECRI evaluations are unbiased, fact-based, and free from industry influence.
For information and to register for ECRI Guidelines Trust, visit www.ecri.org/guidelines or e-mail us at guidelines@ecri.org.
