Abstract

This clinical practice guideline (CPG) emerges as an initiative of the scientific committee of the Spanish Society of Thoracic Surgery.

We formulated PICO (patient, intervention, comparison, and outcome) questions on various aspects of spontaneous pneumothorax.

For the evaluation of the quality of evidence and preparation of recommendations we followed the guidelines of the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) working group.
