ORIGINAL ARTICLE
Clinical Practice Guidelines and the CME Office
Jocelyn Lockyer
A b s t r a c t
CME providers are often asked today to develop and promote implementation strategies for clinical practice guidelines (CPGs). This article reviews selected literature relating to the development, dissemination, and implementation of CPGs. CME providers can play an important role in facilitating the adoption of guidelines. Their efforts will be more effective if they reinforce CPGs through the use of local study groups an other techniques such as opinion leaders, clinical recall interviews, audits, and individualized feedback.
