Follow on Google News | Lyme Disease: Research Priority Survey launchesUK-registered charity Lyme Disease Action has launched a second survey, the next step in finding out what we do and don’t know about the treatment and diagnosis of often-misdiagnosed Lyme disease.
By: Travel PR In 2011 doctors and patients submitted more than 900 questions. Removal of duplicates and consolidation boiled those down to about 50 separate representative questions. Following a full literature search by an information specialist, the list of 39 uncertainties has now been published and a survey has opened to gather opinions on the top 10 priorities for research. This list of priorities will then feed into the national research agenda. To read about the identified uncertainties, and participate in the survey, please visit: http://www.lymediseaseaction.org.uk/ The survey is now open and will close at 10am on Monday 10 December 2012. It will not take long to complete. Background information: Lyme Disease Action (http://www.lymediseaseaction.org.uk) is a charity striving for greater awareness of Lyme disease and associated tick-borne diseases. Ends: 3 December 2012 Note to Editors: A Lyme disease fact sheet, poster (showing how to remove a tick correctly) and leaflets on Lyme disease are available for publication if required, or for readers to take to their own local GP or veterinary practice.
