Key Points Question Is it possible to create a tool to specifically evaluate the quality of clinical practice guideline recommendations? Findings In this cross-sectional study of 322 international stakeholders, the Appraisal of Guidelines Research and Evaluation–Recommendations Excellence (AGREE-REX) tool was developed to appraise guidelines for clinical practice. All participants rated the tool as usable and agreed that it represents a valuable addition to the clinical practice guidelines enterprise.
