The '''National Academy of Medicine''' (NAM) is an [[United States|American]] non-profit, non-governmental organization which provides expert advice on issues relating to biomedical science, medicine and health. It was formerly the '''Institute of Medicine''' (IOM). On February 10, 2015, the IOM unveiled the [[Institute of Medicine report]] (IOMR), ''Beyond Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome: Redefining an Illness,''<ref name="IOM2015MECFS">{{citation | last1 = Institute of Medicine (US) | last2 = Committee on the Diagnostic Criteria for Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome | title = Beyond Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome: Redefining an Illness | date = Feb 10, 2015 |url= http://iom.nationalacademies.org/Reports/2015/ME-CFS.aspx}}</ref> which outlined suggestions for a [[ME/CFS]] diagnosis based on thousands of medical reports over several decades. A new name for the illness was proposed: [[Systemic Exertion Intolerance Disease]] or [[SEID]]. The [[Centers for Disease Control and Prevention]] (CDC) outlines the IOMR diagnostic criteria under the ME/CFS page "[https://www.cdc.gov/me-cfs/healthcare-providers/diagnosis/iom-2015-diagnostic-criteria.html IOM 2015 Diagnostic Criteria]".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.cdc.gov/me-cfs/healthcare-providers/diagnosis/iom-2015-diagnostic-criteria.html | title = IOM 2015 Diagnostic Criteria {{!}} Diagnosis {{!}} Healthcare Providers {{!}} Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome | date = 2018-11-08 | website = [[Centers for Disease Control and Prevention]]|language=en-us|access-date=2019-07-16}}</ref> ==See also== *[[Institute of Medicine report]] ==Learn more== *[https://nam.edu/ National Academy of Medicine Website] *[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Academy_of_Medicine Wikipedia - National Academy of Medicine] ==References== {{reflist}} [[Category:Organizations]] [[Category:Non-profit organizations based in the United States]]
