Of the innumerable GPC available in the literature, only a few have a minimum methodological rigor and describe the proper construction processes, such as search, synthesis of evidence and generating recommendations. The Instrument for the Evaluation of Clinical Practice Guidelines AGREE is a tool that assesses the methodological rigor and transparency with which it produces a guide. The aim of the AGREE II is to provide a framework for: Assessing the quality of the guides, provide a methodological strategy for the development of guidelines and establish what information and how it should be presented in the guides. Given the current internal and external challenges to the health sector, undermining the purpose beneficiante the practice of medicine, health professional for the Evidence-Based Medicine is not an option but a necessity.
