The Critical Role of Clinical Practice Guidelines and Indicators in High-Quality Survivorship After Childhood Cancer.

Childhood cancer survivors are at significant risk for late cancer treatment-related morbidity and mortality. Physicians involved in the care of childhood cancer survivors should be aware of these specific health problems and provide high-quality, long-term follow-up care to preserve and improve survivors' health. The steps required to achieve high-quality care include synthesizing evidence (systematic reviews are helpful in this regard), developing clinical policy from evidence into evidence-based clinical practice guidelines, disseminating and implementing clinical practice guidelines, and evaluating their impact on quality of care and survivor health outcomes with quality indicators. This article describes these cornerstones of evidence-based medicine.
