Eleanor Samarasekera, Christopher E Clark, Satwinder Kaur, Riyaz Patel, Joseph Mills
Abstract
NICE recommendations are based on systematic reviews of the best available evidence and explicit consideration of cost effectiveness. When minimal evidence is available, recommendations are based on the guideline committee's (GC's) experience and opinion of what constitutes good practice. Evidence levels for the recommendations are given in italic in square brackets. Definitions of evidence certainty are given in box 1.
