A study on exploring consensus developing standards in clinical practice guideline for traditional Chinese medicine / 中国中药杂志

ABSTRACT

It is a compulsory step from expert consensus to recommendation in developing clinical practice guideline. Therefore, it is necessary to establish standards for structuring expert consensus developing process by integrating traditional Chinese medicine theories into evidence. We summarized our experience to put forward to forming a flowchart and transparency process for making recommendation considering both evidence and traditional theories from traditional Chinese medicine in making clinical guideline. It is hoped that this could be useful for future researchers in this area.
