Primary and revision elbow replacement surgery in the NHS. A BESS/BOA/GIRFT Surgical Procedure Guideline

摘要

This special supplement of the Shoulder and Elbow Journal sees the publication of a new type of BESS guideline called a 'Surgical Procedure Guideline' (SPG). This and any future BESS SPGs are aimed to sit alongside the BESS/BOA Patient Care Pathways (PCPs) that have been developed by BESS since 2015 to help standardise and improve quality of patient treatment pathways in primary and secondary care (http://www.bess.org.uk/index.php/health-profes sionals/patient-care-pathways)
