Abstract
An update of the levels of scientific evidence stating the varying degrees of recommendation for asymptomatic patients, indicating which procedures are most appropriate and what should be avoided all the systems described, we seek one that meets the principle of simplicity and utility. We chose for our setting the valuation of the Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine, Oxford (OCEBM). This classication has the advantage that assures us the knowledge on each scenario, its high degree of specialization. It also has the prerogative to clarify how it affects the lack of methodological rigor to the study design, reducing its assessment not only in the grading of the evidence, but also on the strength of recommendations.
