> The Healthcare Evaluation Unit at St Georges Hospital Medical School has done extensive research into assessing clinical guidelines and used to assess all the guidelines that the DoH commissioned. They do have a website and I think Francois Cluzeau would be the person to contact.
The web site
http://www.sghms.ac.uk/depts/phs/hceu/guide.htm
has both the validated UK appraisal tool and an international tool
that is undergoing validation as we speak.
