“…The implementation of critical pathways (or fasttracking protocols) is one approach to this challenge that has been applied to many different surgical procedures (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10). Critical pathways are best described as structured multidisciplinary care plans that detail the essential steps in the care of patients with a specific clinical problem (11). They provide a timeline of the ideal sequence of treatment related events with daily goals, to assist care providers in administering care with optimal efficiency.…”

“…Recently, several reviews have been published that question the true value of critical pathways (11)(12)(13)(14)(15). The criticisms contained in these articles include (1) the possibility that performance improvements are the result of patient selection bias, with only healthy patients "cherry picked" for inclusion in pathway treatment giving unfair advantage over unfiltered pre-pathway controls or, (2) that only pathway implementation with substantial improvements get reported (12).…”

“…ICPs are standardised multidisciplinary care plans of the services that patients with a specific problem should receive. 13 The ICP aimed to increase psychological support for patients with dental anxiety and reduce demand for pharmacological intervention through the development and implementation of a nurse-led dental anxiety management service (NDAMS) (see Figure 1). …”

“…The motivation of that paper follows the state of Campbell et al who characterize as one aim of CPs as: "They can provide a link between the establishment of clinical guidelines and their use." [9]. Two scenarios should clarify aspects of connection of CPs to CPGs.…”

Abstract. Health care systems are facing new challenges such as the aging population, the increasing amount of chronicle diseases and the rapid development of medical technologies. The increasing of the related health care costs lead to the limits of affordability of health care systems. Building Health networks and standardization of clinical processes are the main trend facing these challenges. Actually, the main instrument for documentation and managing of clinical processes are Clinical Pathways (CPs). They allow to transfer evident knowledge in practice and they are the central point of clinical quality management. In contrast, Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPGs) aggregate the evident medical knowledge in a compact form to support physicians in their practice. In the paper analyze the model-driven development of CP for a health network. Therefore, we work out problems of integration. Finally, the paper shows aspect for a model-based integration of CPGs in CPs. These findings are proofed with the help of the documentation of the regional stroke-network called SOS-NET.
