Hereditary Haemorrhagic Telangiectasia Working Group (HHT-WG)

Clinical Practice Guidelines

Clinical practice guidelines are evidence-based recommendations developed to assist healthcare professionals in making informed decisions about patient care. These guidelines are developed using rigorous methods and are based on the best available evidence to date. They are designed to optimize patient care by providing guidance on diagnosis, treatment, and management of specific conditions.

As part of VASCERN’s commitment to enhancing the care and treatment of individuals with rare vascular diseases, the Hereditary Haemorrhagic Telangiectasia Working Group (HHT-WG) follows (and have generated) existing (national and international) clinical practice guidelines.
