New German ME/CFS Practice Guide Sets Standard for Diagnosis and Care

A new practice guide for ME/CFS has been released by the German Society for ME/CFS, the Charité Fatigue Centre, and leading experts. The resource aims to support medical professionals in diagnosing and treating patients with the condition. General information is available to the public, while specialised details require a login for healthcare workers. The guide provides a structured approach to ME/CFS care. It covers key areas such as clinical presentation, diagnosis, therapeutic management, and administrative coding. Two PDF summaries on diagnostics and therapy are included for quick reference in busy medical settings.

Orthostatic intolerance (OI) and postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (PoTS) receive particular attention. These conditions are common comorbidities in ME/CFS patients, and the guide offers evidence-based strategies for managing them. Beyond theory, it includes practical tips and dosage recommendations—though these require a DocCheck login to access. Feedback is encouraged to refine the guide over time. Medical professionals can submit suggestions or corrections via the email address *[email protected] Webseite*. Regular updates are planned to ensure the content remains current with the latest research and clinical best practices.

The guide is now available as a resource for doctors and specialists. It combines foundational knowledge with actionable advice for ME/CFS treatment. By focusing on evidence-based methods and regular revisions, the authors aim to improve patient care standards in Germany.
