PACCS Initial Assessment
This guidance has been developed to support healthcare professionals across Primary and Secondary Care in Scotland to undertake an initial assessment of patients with Post-infection and Associated Complex Chronic Syndromes (PACCS). This is an expansion on the original Initial Assessment for Long COVID as services evolve to cover other similar long-term conditions.
POTS Interim Signposting Document.
This Interim Signposting Document provides signposting to current evidence-based resources for the management of Postural Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) in adults with Long COVID and post-viral syndromes in NHS Scotland secondary care services. UK consensus guidelines are currently in development by the British Society of Cardiovascular Medicine in collaboration with PoTS UK and other stakeholders (expected December 2026). This Interim Signposting Document will be superseded upon publication of those guidelines.
