Summary:
The guideline covers care provided by healthcare professionals who have direct contact with and make decisions about the care of people with chronic fatigue syndrome/myalgic encephalomyelitis (or encephalopathy) (CFS/ME). It covers care provided in primary and secondary care, and in specialist centres/teams. The Guideline Development Group (GDG) developed this guideline with the aims of: increasing the recognition of CFS/ME; influencing practice in the real world; improving access to appropriate services, and supporting consistent service provision; emphasising the need for multidisciplinary working; improving care for patients, particularly for those with severe CFS/ME; providing guidance on best practice for children with CFS/ME; balancing clinical guidance with flexibility and management tailored to the needs of the patient; facilitating communication between practitioners and patients, and their families or carers, as appropriate.
