MedicalGuideline
Defined in the health.schema.org extension. (This is an initial exploratory release.)Canonical URL: http://schema.org/MedicalGuideline
Any recommendation made by a standard society (e.g. ACC/AHA) or consensus statement that denotes how to diagnose and treat a particular condition. Note: this type should be used to tag the actual guideline recommendation; if the guideline recommendation occurs in a larger scholarly article, use MedicalScholarlyArticle to tag the overall article, not this type. Note also: the organization making the recommendation should be captured in the recognizingAuthority base property of MedicalEntity.
Usage: Between 10 and 100 domains
