The RCPE routinely convenes international consensus conferences in areas in which the evidence is grey or in which there is clinical uncertainty with a view to developing consensus statements which can be rapidly disseminated to a clinical level and implemented in practice. In recent years, such statements have covered areas as diverse as stroke treatment and service delivery, hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and early Chronic Kidney Disease and have been used to inform Scottish and UK health policy in addition to being used in clinical practice around the world. Details of the methodology used for developing RCPE consensus conferences can be accessed here.
