Objective The dissemination and active support for clinical practice guidelines development method based on the principle of EBM, is one of the main pillars of MINDS (Medical Information Network Distribution Service) consignment project for EBM promotion implemented by Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare Japan. In 2007, with the publication of MINDS guidance to develop Clinical practice guidelines 2007 by Fukui et al., a protocol to develop clinical practice guidelines was introduced as the most valid manual at that time in Japan.
