The Joint Task Force on Practice Parameters (JTFPP) is committed to ensuring that all guidelines are based on the best scientific evidence at the time of publication, and that such evidence is free of commercial bias to the greatest extent possible. Before confirming the selection of the workgroup chairpersons and members, the JTFPP discusses and resolves all relevant potential conflicts of interest (COI) of each potential workgroup member. The JTFPP recognizes that experts in a field are likely to have interests that could come into conflict with the development of a completely unbiased and objective guideline.
