Critical Illness

CI: Major Recommendations and Supporting Evidence (2012)

Major Recommendations

Each recommendation receives a rating of Strong, Weak, or Consensus. The rating for the recommendation is primarily based on the strength of the supporting evidence but also the balance between benefits or harms anticipated and the clinical practice implications. The Academy categorizes recommendations in terms of either Imperative or Conditional statements. Conditional statements clearly define a specific situation or specific sub-population within the larger guideline population. Imperative statements are broadly applicable to the target population without restraints on their application. Learn more →
