Guidelines are typically developed by professional organizations such as the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) and the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RCOG). The process involves: 1. Identifying clinical questions. 2. Conducting systematic reviews of the literature. 3. Evaluating the quality of evidence. 4. Formulating recommendations. 5. Peer review and public consultation. 6. Regular updates to incorporate new evidence.
