STROKE Foundation and Cochrane Australia are about to pilot 'living stroke guidelines', accelerating access to world-class, evidence-based treatments.
Health Minister Greg Hunt announced the $1.5m Medical Research Future Fund trial on Fri.
Stroke Foundation ceo Sharon McGowan said the world-first Living Guidelines for Stroke Management would deliver a "near real-time, closed-loop evidence system in which global evidence and local data are continually integrated with clinical expertise".
The new guidelines will draw on latest synthesis technologies developed by Cochrane and partners, including artificial intelligence, the Cochrane Crowd citizen science community, and the Covidence and MAGICapp software platforms, to trigger rapid updates of guidelines whenever there is an important change in evidence.
