This event is only open to those resident in Ireland & Northern Ireland
This workshop will lead attendees through the complete process of guideline development with GRADE using a concrete example, starting with the selection of a relevant PICO question and ending with the formulation of a recommendation. The GRADEpro GDT software is used for this purpose. The thematic focus is on assessing the certainty of the underlying evidence as well as the strength of the recommendation. In lectures, we introduce GRADE and explain its use with examples.
Attendees will be enabled to:
- understand the basic principles of the GRADE approach and be able to comprehend the individual steps in the assessment of the evidence and their impact on the strength of the recommendation
- be able to create an evidence profile for a therapeutic intervention based on a systematic review
- have a basic understanding of the GRADE Software
