The CARI Guidelines process includes the revision of guidelines every three years to incorporate the latest evidence and keep guidelines relevant.

As updating is completed, the finalised guidelines will be published in the journal 'Nephrology'. A number of these publications are planned for 2007/8. Please note that guidelines developed before 2004 were created according to a different process to the current one, and have not been peer reviewed.
