METHODS: Retrieved from PubMed, Embase, National Guideline Clearinghouse, Guidelines International Network, TRIP medical database, CBM, CJFD, VIP and WANFANG DATA, etc., the evidence-based treatment guideline involving pediatric ITP were included, and methodological quality of the guideline was evaluated by using AGREE Ⅱ tool. The similarities and differences of the guidelines were analyzed and compared. RESULTS: A total of 7 pediatric ITP evidence-based guidelines were included, among which 2 came from US, 2 came from Italy, 2 came from British and another one came from Malaysia. The quality of 7 guidelines were not good, among which 6 guidelines were recommended as grade B and 1 guideline was recommended as grade C; only one GRADE evidence-based guideline was found. The score of included guideline in the field of AGREE Ⅱ was in descending order as scope and purpose, clarity, rigor of development, stakeholder involvement, applicability, editorial independence. The main recommended drugs of these guidelines were: glucocorticoids, intravenous immunoglobulin, anti-D-immunoglobulin, while some guidelines recommend platelet, rituximab and combined medication. CONCLUSIONS: The quality of evidence-based guidelines of ITP for children is in low level and should be improved. There is no evidence-based guideline of ITP for children in China. It is suggested to develop high quality evidence-based guideline for ITP children in China based on AGREE Ⅱ items.
