Clinical Practice Guidelines for the Management of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Clinical Practice Guidelines for Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) provide healthcare professionals with evidence-based recommendations on diagnosing and managing the condition. SLE is an autoimmune disease where the immune system attacks the body's own tissues, affecting organs like the skin, joints, kidneys, and heart. The guidelines help doctors tailor treatments—such as medications, lifestyle changes, and monitoring—to control symptoms, prevent organ damage, and improve quality of life. They ensure consistent, effective care by guiding clinicians on best practices, balancing risks and benefits, and considering individual patient needs in managing this complex disease.
