Change Healthcare Clinical Evidence

Classification

References cited in the clinical content are classified according to the type of evidence

presented. The class ratings, I through V, are intended to provide a classification of the evidence

but are not necessarily hierarchical. Classifications appear in parentheses at the end of each

reference. References followed by an (NC) are not classified; examples include pre-published

research or information from government, manufacturer, laboratory, or patient education

websites.

Classification Type of Evidence

Class I Meta-analysis, technology assessment, or systematic review

Class II Randomized controlled trial

Class III Observational or epidemiologic study

Class IV Evidence-based guideline

Class V Expert opinion, panel consensus, literature review, text or reference book,

descriptive study, case report, or case series

Class I

Class I sources synthesize the results of multiple studies. When quantitative synthesis is possible,

meta-analyses can provide a more accurate estimate of the effect or association size than

individual smaller studies can. A Class I study that finds insufficient evidence to support or refute

an intervention (due to a lack of appropriate primary research) is inconclusive. A potential

weakness of Class I studies is that they may only assess published research, potentially leaving

their findings vulnerable to publication bias.

Class II

A randomized controlled trial (RCT) is an experimental study design in which subjects are

randomly assigned to an intervention or a control group. An RCT is the gold standard for testing

cause and effect relationships. Intention-to-treat analysis should be performed to account for

missing data points.

Class III

Observational or epidemiologic studies can suggest an association between events or findings.

These associations cannot be used to establish causality. Cross-sectional, cohort, and case-

control studies are all used to identify possible risk factors. Cross-sectional studies are also used to

determine the prevalence of a condition. Cohort studies are used to study incidence, the

natural history of a condition, prognosis after a specific exposure, and associated harms.

Nonrandomized controlled trials are sometimes used when randomization is impossible or

unethical.

Class IV

Evidence-based guidelines are systematically developed recommendations for clinical

practice. Evidence-based guidelines identify the methodology used to gather the evidence on

which the recommendations are based. Usually, a grading system for both the quality of the

evidence and the strength of the recommendations is provided. Guidelines that are evidence-

based may also contain consensus recommendations in areas where evidence is lacking, but

these recommendations are clearly identified and appropriately graded.

Class V

Class V references may be the best information in the absence of other evidence. Expert

opinion, panel consensus, literature reviews, and descriptive studies (case reports or case series)

are subject to significant bias. A case series with comparison to historical controls can be

plagued with missing data, and data extraction inconsistencies are common. The use of

historical controls does not address how the diagnosis of disease or its treatment has evolved

over time with newer technologies or medication. Text book information may be out of date by

the time the book is published.

Comparative Effectiveness Research (CER)

Citations are designated with the CER label as part of the evidence classification if the article

cited is one of the following:

1. A clinical trial or other clinical study that directly compares two or more health care

interventions for the same clinical scenario.

2. A systematic review that compares two or more health care interventions by synthesizing

the research from previous clinical studies.
