Following publication of SIGN 116 Management of Diabetes, we produced a new suite of 25 clinical guidelines. They were written by a variety of health care professionals and widely consulted on before being launched on 21st September, 2011. We are currently working on a plan to assess their implementation, but please let us know if you have any comments. A pocket sized summary booklet of these guidelines is available from Heather McDonald at Heather.McDonald2@lanarkshire.scot.nhs.uk
