Areas of uncertainty on the diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of hypophosphatemia in adults: an Italian Delphi consensus.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

The study aimed to present the results of a Delphi consensus involving Italian experts focusing on the management of hypophosphatemia in adults.

Methods

A multidisciplinary advisory board of nine physicians, experts in hypophosphatemia management, was established. Next, a literature search was performed to identify international guidelines, consensus, and clinical pathways, which were later presented to the advisory board. Collaboratively, the advisory board and authoring team selected key statements for the consensus process and focused on areas of uncertainty related to the management of hypophosphatemia. The advisory board also indicated the experts to be invited to participate in the consensus process. The Delphi method was employed to reach a consensus.
