Health Care Recommendation articles are consensus statements developed by a group of experts through a collaborative process of evidence review to reach an agreement on best practices, guidelines, or recommendations for a specific orthopaedic issue.
Health Care Recommendations should adhere to the AGREE II reporting guideline and a recognized tool such as GRADE must be used to grade the quality of evidence and strength of the recommendations. Relevant stakeholders should be included in the guideline development group.
