S4E3 Creating practice guidelines for myelopathy, with Chad Cook and RECODE DCM
At present, treatment for myelopathy varies widely. Although various surgical treatments are well known, there are currently no guidelines for the many non-operative domains of care (e.g. pre- and post-operative rehabilitation, pain relief, physiotherapy, nursing). In a powerful initiative led by Prof Chad Cook from Duke University, the RECODE-DCM Perioperative Rehabilitation Incubator is bringing together experts from all relevant disciplines to write management guidelines. Iwan shares his story, as a reminder of why filling this important knowledge gap could provide many simple, immediate gains for people living with myelopathy.
