The article focuses on practice guidelines for stroke units. In their paper Essential Requirements for Practice Guidelines at National and Local Levels, F. Nonino and A. Liberati have addressed a relevant problem in Italy. They explored the local practice guidelines on stroke management from 7 Italian stroke units, using explicit criteria to evaluate the internal and external validities. Particularly, they used the best evidence obtained through systematic reviews as a requirement for the internal validity of the guidelines.
