    AbstractThe objective of this paper was to determine the views of accident and emergency consultants and trainees towards practice guidelines and their experiences using guidelines. A postal questionnaire survey of consultants, senior registrars and registrars in accident and emergency medicine was carried out in Yorkshire. The results of this survey show that the potential benefits of practice guidelines are appreciated, and that evidence-based and 'user-friendly' guidelines are wanted. It is concluded that unless rigorously developed and clear and easy to use, guidelines are unlikely to be implemented in accident and emergency departments in the UK.
