  • Differentiate between communicative second opinions (CSO) and evidence-based second opinions (EBSO).
  • Establish criteria for evidence-based second opinions.

Summary:

  • Communicative second opinions (CSO) often lack literature review.
  • Evidence-based second opinions (EBSO) require examination of problem type, data validity, and clinical relevance.
  • Proposes a scoring system to define proposal or exclusion thresholds for treatment options.
