Workshop Description: During this workshop, we will first provide an overview of the guideline development process and of the framework to assess the certainty of evidence using GRADE. The attendees will then apply the GRADE framework in an interactive discussion with panel members. The second half of the workshop will be dedicated to the application of GRADE recommendations in clinical practice using examples from the Canadian Cardiovascular Society Guidelines on Perioperative Cardiac Risk Assessment and Management for Patients Who Undergo Noncardiac Surgery and Focused Update of the Guidelines for the Use of Antiplatelet Therapy.
