Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome

Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome
Ensuring a patient-centred approach to care for people living with myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS)

On completion of this education activity participants will be able to:

  • Evaluate and reconsider management of ME/CFS, based on the latest developments in our understanding of ME/CFS pathophysiology.
  • Identify exclusionary conditions, mimics and false diagnoses, to aid in the accurate diagnosis of ME/CFS.
  • Plan strategies for managing non-core symptoms of ME/CFS including gastrointestinal symptoms and neurological symptoms, and for managing specific populations with ME/CFS (i.e. the severely unwell, young patients and those undergoing surgery).\
  • Formulate a patient-centred treatment plan that accommodates the patient with ME/CFS in general practice.
  • Coordinate a multidisciplinary team approach, as appropriate, to optimise outcomes in patients with ME/CFS.
