Abstract

This is one of a series of clinical guidelines. They represent a consensus statement dealing with optimum patient care in significant clinical areas. The statement has been prepared by the Patient Care Committee, with the advice of other experts and with peer review. As with all such guidelines, they should be interpreted in a nondogmatic manner, so as not to exclude other therapies or opinions in any particular situation. Based on present knowledge, limited at times, future modifications or other changes in these guidelines may be necessary.
