Evidence-Based Practice / Unit 8   EBP 1072 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Recommendations Carry a Grade

Captions available

The idea

Guidelines grade their recommendations, so a reader can see how much confidence the panel had in each one.

In practice

Two recommendations in one guideline carrying different grades.

Where people slip

The grade belongs to the recommendation, not to the guideline. A good guideline contains weakly supported recommendations and says so.
