CESCI - Interactive Pathway

GIRFT’s first interactive pathway – illustrating best practice for clinicians caring for patients suspected of having Cauda Equina Syndrome (CES) – has now gone live.

The easy-to-navigate, web-based tool is designed for use by clinicians, nurses and allied health professionals (AHPs) at every stage of the CES patient pathway, from GP presentation to post-operative care. It guides users through examples of the processes and key decisions they should work through for diagnosis, treatment and follow-up of patients in their care.

Developed, reviewed and co-badged by a range of stakeholders – Royal Colleges, specialist societies and patient organisations – the new interactive version of the pathway can be used and bookmarked on all handheld and desktop devices, in a range of care settings.
