unexplained illnesses: BioMarkers for CFS/ME Daniel Dahdah St - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

Customising daily recordings using Patient Centred Outcomes in unexplained illnesses: BioMarkers for CFS/ME Daniel Dahdah – St Jude's Clinic, Sydney

’Cause and Effect’ model to affect Form AND Function

Whole systems = Interconnectedness = Diversity of symptoms Where and when does my body come under my conscious control and yet is inextricably connected to influential areas that are supposedly beyond my control?

How do we? More ? Visualise simultaneous and dramatic symptom reductions across multiple systems? Paradigms Detect the early signs of success? frame Distinguish between genuine improvements questions and natural history remissions? Establish a link between CFS/ME and other comorbidities? Predict time frames for recovery and who likely responders may be?

Symptoms into PCO’s = Valued BioMarker Link to Vanessa Patrick – Mick – role of Niki – The need – Success and Movement to antidepressantsi for Baselines Longevity self care Accountability tool, Building Trust in Practitioner, Assessing Effectiveness, Restoring Hope in future recovery, Creating perspective, Enhanced discussion with practitioner
