Abstract/OtherAbstract:
When there is more than one possible intervention, clinicians have to decide which intervention to offer first. This paper hypothesises that where there is more than one intervention for which the evidence indicates there is similar effectiveness that selecting the intervention with the lowest credibility first may lead to optimal long-term results.
