They are proven safe and definitely useful. Supported by evidence from at least 1 prospective, randomized clinical trial Class 2a Recommendations considered acceptable with good to very good evidence providing support. The weight of evidence and expert opinions strongly favors these interventions Class 2b Recommendations considered acceptable and useful with weak or only fair evidence providing support.
