Abstract

High-quality clinical practice guidelines are of great significance for standardizing the clinical diagnosis and treatment process and improving the overall quality of health care. The Appraisal of Guidelines for Research & Evaluation InstrumentⅡ (AGREEⅡ) is one of the recognized tools for the evaluation of the quality of clinical practice guidelines. It has been translated into Chinese and is widely used in guideline formulation and quality evaluation. This article intends to take the comparatively high-quality clinical practice guidelines in the field of esophageal cancer screening in China, i.e. "Expert Consensus on Early Esophageal Cancer and Precancerous Lesion Screening in China (2019, Xinxiang)" as an example, to interpret the use of AGREEⅡ item by item, which might provide a reference for medical and health workers to better understand and use the assessment tool.
