In keeping with Federation regulations, CPD certificates can only be sent to those who have completed the attendance/feedback survey before the close.  In light of the subject matter for this event, we have secured an extension to complete the survey until 3 months after the live event.

This event may be of particular interest to medical colleagues who support patients with ME/CFS or Long Covid.

The latest in our special edition series is focused on Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME)/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) and Long Covid. These complex multi-system illnesses have increased in prevalence since the Covid-19 pandemic, and can be highly disabling, significantly impacting a person’s ability to work and function in daily life. 

During this webinar you will learn about the pathophysiology of ME/CFS and Long Covid, clinical presentation, making a diagnosis, and common associated conditions such as Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS). You will also learn about up-to-date management strategies and treatments. You will hear from the patient perspective, a very important aspect in learning, understanding and managing these conditions. Levels of severity of ME/CFS will also be discussed, including the impact on nutrition and the use of supplemental nutrition. Finally you will hear about current and emerging research into both the understanding and management of ME/CFS and Long Covid. 

We would like to express our sincere thanks to Dr Marie-Claire Grounds and Dr Hannah Preston for their support in developing this event. 

Please note the presentations will be available to view on catch-up the second working day after the live event. Delegates can continue to register for catch-up access only after the live event has taken place. 

Delegates will have the opportunity to submit questions to the speakers which will be addressed live at the event taking place at 6.00pm – 8.30pm (BST)
