An official American Thoracic Society workshop report. A framework for addressing multimorbidity in clinical practice guidelines for pulmonary disease, critical illness, and sleep disorders.
The American Thoracic Society convened a workshop to establish a strategy to address multimorbidity within clinical practice guidelines. This report describes a framework that addresses multimorbidity in each of the key steps of guideline development: topic selection, panel composition, identifying clinical questions, searching for and synthesizing evidence, rating the quality of that evidence, summarizing benefits and harms, formulating recommendations, and rating the strength of the recommendations.
