In guidelines we cannot trust: Comment on “failure of clinical practice guidelines to meet institute of medicine standards”

A partir d'une revue de 130 recommandations de pratique clinique, cette étude évalue leur degré de conformité vis-à-vis des principes de référence édictés par l'Institute of Medicine aux Etats-Unis en mars 2011

In the late 1990s, 2 colleagues and I critically appraised a broad set of published guidelines and found that guidelines adhered to less than half of the methodological standards for guideline development.2 We opined that since the guideline industry was in its infancy, over time developers would adhere to recommended standards of guideline development. As demonstrated by Kung et al3 in this issue of the Archives, guidelines are still not following guidelines.
