The methodology manual for the EACTS clinical guidelines was issued to standardize the developmental process of evidence-based documents.Members of the task force to develop a clinical guideline on perioperative medication in adult cardiac surgery were selected for their expertise in their respective areas. To increase the credibility of evidence-based documents, EACTS aims for a collaborative process with other specialists also involved in the diagnosis or treatment of the given condition. For the current clinical guideline, non-cardiac surgeon specialists, known to be experts in their particular domains, were invited to join the task force; however, it should be noted that other scientific societies have not officially endorsed this clinical guideline. Task force members undertook an evidence review, assisted by 2 dedicated research fellows. The level of evidence (Table 1) and the strength of the recommendations (Table 2) were weighed and graded according to predefined scales.
