Key Points Strength of Recommendation and Quality of Evidence Category/Grade Definition Recommendation SR – Strong Clear desirable or undesirable effects WR – Weak Desirable and undesirable effects closely balanced or uncertain Quality of Evidence H – High Consistent evidence from well-performed RCTs or exceptionally strong evidence from unbiased observational studies M – Moderate Evidence from RCTs with important limitations or moderately strong evidence from unbiased observational studies L – Low Evidence for ≥1 critical outcome from observational studies, from RCTs with serious flaws or from indirect evidence VL – Very low Evidence for ≥1 critical outcome from unsystematic clinical observations or very indirect evidence Grade Implication Comment SR-H Applies to most patients in most circumstances Further research is unlikely to change estimate SR-M Further research may change estimate SR-L SR-VL Estimate of effect for at least one critical outcome is very uncertain WR-H e best action may differ depending on circumstances or patients or societal values Further research is unlikely to change estimate WR-M Alternative approaches likely to be better for some patients under some circumstances Further research may change estimate WR-L Other alternatives may be equally reasonable WR-VL Any estimate of effect, for at least one critical outcome, is very uncertain RCTs, randomized controlled trials.
