NICE guideline : Myalgic encephalomyelitis (or encephalopathy)/chronic fatigue syndrome: diagnosis and management

This final guideline has now been published on the NICE website. You can also find the supporting evidence, tools and resources as well as all the stakeholder comments (consultation table 1 and consultation table 2) that we received during consultation and the responses to these comments. The comments were invaluable in helping us to develop and refine the guideline. We have also produced an equality impact assessment to support the guideline.

The recommendations from this guideline have been included in the NICE Pathway, which brings together everything we have said on Myalgic encephalomyelitis (or encephalopathy)/chronic fatigue syndrome: diagnosis and management in an interactive flowchart. There is brief information about the guideline for people using services, carers and the public at ‘Information for the public’.

We would like to thank you for your interest in developing this NICE guideline and any support you can give to promote its use in practice.
