In this conversation, Jessica Patterson and Florian Schmitzberger discuss the evolution of clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) from the Department of Defense (DOD) and their application in different contexts, particularly in light of the changes from the Global War on Terror (GWOT) to new healthcare environments. They emphasize the need for data to understand how these guidelines will perform in varied systems.

Takeaways

This isn't GWOT, this isn't Iraq, this isn't Afghanistan.

The performance of CPGs in different systems is uncertain.

Data gathering is essential to assess guideline effectiveness.

Understanding ground truth is crucial for guideline application.

The DOD's CPGs were refined for specific contexts.

New healthcare environments may challenge existing guidelines.

The evolution of CPGs reflects changing military and healthcare needs.

Questions arise about the adaptability of CPGs.

Future research is needed to evaluate guideline performance.
