DEVELOPING THE GUIDELINES
The Infectious Diseases Society of America, American Academy of Neurology, and American College of Rheumatology formed a joint panel to manage the guidelines development process.
A review of the medical literature surrounding Lyme disease was conducted by an independent medical library and served as the basis for the development of the guidelines. In accordance with recommendations from the National Academy of Medicine and best guideline development practices, we searched multiple medical databases, including both published research and study registries containing as yet unpublished studies.
The Guidelines for the Prevention, Diagnosis and Treatment of Lyme Disease are now available on the IDSA website.
