Assess your CPG

1) Does the CPG include references and is it linked to other existing CPGs that allow you to examine its specificity in depth?
2) Does the CPG approach a pathology that has no previous mentions in the Guideline.gov, Guiasalud.es y Nice.org.uk databases? Is it innovative?
3) Has the CPG been drawn up following the guidelines of a style manual?
4) Is the CPG an updated or improved version of one previously elaborated?
5) Does the CPG approach a pathology or does it include recommendations subject to frequent scientific debate? Is it groundbreaking? Does it disagree with the recommendations of the pharmaceutical industry, or is it covered by the mass media?
6) Do the CPG authors foresee obtaining financial resources for promoting it or can they access them?
7) Do CPG authors belong to a network of knowledge or a centre of excellence on the pathology dealt with in the CPG?
8) Do CPG authors have a pre-existing digital platform of their own? (Blog, forum, website etc.).
9) Has the CPG been commissioned or funded by an institutional sponsor?
10) Have most of the authors or the organisation in charge of the CPG previously drawn up and promoted other CPGs?
11) Is the CPG the result of any medical conference, convention or symposium? Does it form a part of any, or will it be presented at any?
