Hi I attended the recording of this today, and had also met with ODG previously to discuss application - was there any discussion on application for LCP post session?
I see the value of using this for sourcing clinical guidelines (as a time efficient search), to bring some weight to my opinion, however i wonder if anyone is using this in their LCP / MCP practice and if so, do your reference the recommendation as an " ODG guideline" or do you cite the resource eg the research article?. Just looking for some feedback from LCP's in using this and use in court or in MCP -TIA
