Captions available
The idea
A strong recommendation means the panel was confident about the balance of effects. It does not mean the recommendation is important, nor that it fits this patient.
In practice
A strongly graded recommendation set aside for a patient whose circumstances differ.
Where people slip
Grade, priority and applicability are three separate judgements that a single letter is often read as settling.
