If advances in medical, biomedical, and health services research have reduced the level of uncertainty in clinical practice, Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPG), by establishing standards of care supported by strong scientific evidence, are a crucial tool to translate evidence into practice.(3)
Like any other scientific publication, the trustworthiness of CPG is critical to achieving the right decision and the best clinical results.
To facilitate CPG scoring, we have developed a 5 questions form using the Tripdatabase 8-point scoring system.
Also, we have gathered some bibliographic references for Guideline Grading.
