Guidelines

The Swiss Society for Infectious Diseases (SSI) offers evidence-based guidelines for infectious disease management, helping healthcare professionals deliver high-quality, up-to-date patient care. Developed by experts and regularly updated, our guidelines ensure alignment with the latest research and best practices in clinical treatment and diagnosis.

SSI Guidelines

The SSI Guidelines platform is the central reference hub for evidence-based recommendations on the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of infectious diseases in Switzerland. Our aim is to support healthcare professionals—physicians, nurses, microbiologists, and public-health practitioners—in delivering safe, effective and up-to-date patient care.
