“…The AGREE II instrument has been widely used in published scienti c research as well as endorsed by several health care organizations. Previously, the tool has been extensively used to assess several different areas of pediatrics, including but not limited to surgery, Hirschsprung's disease, and gastroesophageal re ux disease [18][19][20]. To our knowledge, a comprehensive evaluation of CPGs for the diagnosis, treatment, and management of pediatric foreign body aspiration and ingestion has not been previously conducted.…”

Several clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) have been produced to optimize diagnosis and management of pediatric foreign body aspiration and ingestion. However, to date there have been no critical evaluations of their methodological rigor or quality. Herein we address this need via the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation (AGREE II) instrument. MethodsA literature search of Embase, MEDLINE via PubMed, and Scopus was performed up until February 25, 2021. Identi ed CPGs were then assessed by four independent reviewers trained in AGREE II. A scaled domain score of > 60% was indicated as satisfactory quality. Intraclass correlation coe cients (ICC) were calculated to assess inter-reviewer agreement. Results11 guidelines were assessed with only one being classi ed as high quality and others being either average (two) or low quality (eight). Domain 4 (clarity of presentation) achieved the highest mean score (66.41% ± 13.33%), while domain 5 (applicability) achieved the lowest score (10.80% ± 10.37%). ICC analysis revealed generally strong agreement between reviewers with a range of 0.60-0.98. ConclusionQuality appraisal using the AGREE II instrument suggests that the methodologic rigor and quality of current guidelines for the diagnosis and management of pediatric foreign body aspiration and ingestion need signi cant improvement.

Conclusion Quality appraisal using the AGREE II instrument suggests that the methodologic rigor and quality of current guidelines for the diagnosis and management of pediatric foreign body aspiration and ingestion need significant improvement.
