Please note: In 2003, the CTF updated its Grades of
Recommendations to include an "I Recommendation" for situations where
insufficient evidence exists to allow a recommendation to be made.
(Formerly, these situations were captured under a "C
Recommendation".) This change is not retroactive, and all
"C Recommendations" made prior to 2003 have not been
reevaluated in light of the new "I" recommendation grade. For a
discussion of these recommendation grades, please link to the 2003 article in
the Canadian Medical Association Journal here.
