Abstract

In 1972, the Committee on Hearing and Equilibrium of the American Academy of Otoaryngology (AAO-CHE) produced the first diagnostic guidelines for Ménière's disease. The American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery Foundation (AAO-HNS) modified them in 1985, 1995 and 2015. Then, AAO-HNS developed the latest updated version of the Ménière's Disease Guidelines in 2020, based on the latest evidence-based medicine foundation. In this paper, the overall framework and key content of the latest guideline in 2020 are interpreted for domestic colleagues.

Keywords: Ménière's disease; clinical practice guideline; guideline interpretation.
