Shrnutí:The purpose of the AGREE II is more explicitly stated. The new version of the instrument is designed to assess the quality of practice guidelines across the spectrum of health, provide direction on guideline development, and guide what specific information ought to be reported in guidelines. The four-point response scale was replaced by a seven-point response scale, in compliance with key methodologic principles of test construction. 5 A score of 1 indicates an absence of information or that the concept is very poorly reported. A score of 7 indicates that the quality of reporting is exceptional and all of the criteria and considerations articulated in the user's manual were met. A score between 2 and 6 indicates that the reporting of the AGREE II item does not fully meet criteria or considerations. As more criteria are met and more considerations addressed, item scores increase (see user's manual below). Finally, modifications, deletions and additions were made to approximately half of the original 23 items (Table 1). From McMaster University ([Melissa C. Brouwers PhD], [Michelle E. Kho], [Steven E.
