2. Research Project: Delphi Process for Developing a Common Epidemiological Core for CAM: Round 2Thank you for your participation in the first round of our Delphi process. Please read the information available on the ISCMR website carefully before reading the report and responding to the next Questionnaire. Access the results by clicking here or from the ISCMR homepage. The deadline for this next round of responses is MAY 31st 2005.

The purpose of this round of the Delphi Process is to report the results and all of the ideas sent in response to the first questionnaire and to solicit new ideas.

The scores for the first round of core CAM therapies are reported by category with item-specific and overall comments. The list includes all other therapies suggested with the number of participants choosing the item in the comments column. A link is provided on the home page of the ISCMR website to the results of the first round of questionnaires.

The new questionnaire reflects the previous scores and comments. If you have any questions or would like clarification for any of the items or comments, please contact Laurie Lachance (lauriel@umich.edu).
