I'm about to complete my Phd at @UniMelb on Shared Individual Formulation Therapy for Functional Neurological Disorder. Formulation has therapeutic potential and identifies processes driving FND. Mechanisms of action and mediators were identified to guide realist evaluation. 1/5

Ok thanks- I may be thinking a step too far. We developing methods for realist evaluation to better incorporate the views & experiences of people with cognitive impairment. Dementia is our ‘case example’ but we hope this work will be more broadly applicable. @drhannahwheat.bsky.social

I think it’s interesting for our team to think about formulation - maybe it could shed light on diverse experiences and needs

We used various qualitative approaches with the 29 adults with FND who donated their time to these studies. I do recommend patient-verified formulation as part of constructing a context-mechanism-outcome theory for realist evaluation. It’s always a theory but can be refined iteratively.

We’re recruiting for a University of Melbourne study on Functional Neurological Disorder (FND).

Women aged 18–60 with a confirmed FND diagnosis can take part. Help us improve understanding and future care. #FND
