Delphi rounds and practice recommendations

At the start of the project, the WMR-PRIME working group formulated 119 proposals for possible practice recommendations. Between March 14, 2024 and March 29, 2024, the proposals were agreed in a Delphi round of anonymous online voting by clinical staff, scientists, pension insurance providers employees and people who had been treated in

The recommendations evaluated in the first vote were revised by the WMR-PRIME working group. They were offered to the participants of the first Delphi round for voting again in a second Delphi round between 29.04.2024 and 10.05.2024. Of the 119 recommendations submitted in the second round, two were approved by at least 50%, 24 by at least 75% and 81 by at least 95% of the participants.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone involved for their cooperation!

Of the original 119 recommendations, 107 were included in the practice recommendations for WMR in psychosomatic rehabilitation facilities. The recommendations relate to preparation for rehabilitation, referral, goal setting, job-related diagnostics, psychosocial counseling, job-related groups, workplace training, transition management, the team and cooperation with external institutions.
