Internationally, several organizations have developed clinical guidelines for subfertility care to supply patients with the best possible care. However, to improve the implementation of such guidelines, we first need to gain insight into the application of clinical guidelines in daily practice. Valid quality indicators are necessary to estimate actual guideline adherence. However, none of the existing subfertility guideline programmes is accompanied by a satisfactory set of quality indicators. In this study, we develop a set of valid guideline-based quality indicators for subfertility care.
