  • First Online:
Shoulder Concepts 2013: Consensus and Concerns

Abstract

Orthopedic surgeons are encouraged to adopt evidence-based strategies for managing their patients. Levels of evidence have been devised which allow publications to be ranked or given a grade of recommendation. The highest levels are assigned to well-designed randomized, controlled trials and systematic reviews of such trials. Proper studies require good design and the use of validated outcome measure.
