Really nothing of interest in that report IMO. Other than the one person claiming success with BPS rehabilitation despite the rest of the conference largely saying its about management. More "multidisciplinary" approach which is feeling more and more like a euphemism for Psychology and physiotherapy and nothing else. If something of use was said at the conference its not in the report, its a summary of what they talked about but with no enough about it to have any impression of the value of the work one way or the other.

Ola D. Saugstad, Norway, University of Oslo, Røysumtunet:

"The NICE ME/CFS guideline is used in the planning and implementation of care"

I have lost track of what this individual might believe. Is he referring to the 2007 or 2021 NICE guidelines? It just seems like there might be a possibility it is the 2007 guidelines given the other guidelines only came out around a year ago.
