About Evolve

Evolve aims to reduce low-value care by supporting physicians to be leaders in changing clinical behaviour for better patient care, make better decisions, and make better use of resources.

Evolve works with specialties to identify their Top-5 clinical practices that are considered low-value. Low-value care is clinical practices that, in particular circumstances, may:

• be overused
• provide little or no benefit
• cause unnecessary harm.

Evolve’s main objective of reducing low-value care practices also reduces related emissions and waste. This in turn helps to reduce future climate change impacts on patient health and contributes to building stronger more climate resilient healthcare systems.

Evolve Top-5 recommendations

Recommendations on low-value practices are developed through a rigorous, peer-reviewed process led by clinical experts, informed by evidence and guided by consultation and enable physicians to:

• safely and responsibly phase out low-value tests, treatments and procedures, where appropriate
• enhance the safety and quality of healthcare
• provide high-value care to patients based on evidence and expertise
• influence the best use of health resources, reducing wasted expenditure and the carbon footprint of the healthcare system.
