Health professional involvement in the formulation of research questions: findings from the Italian guideline on palliative care in adults with glioma.

Background: In 2017, the European Association of Neuro-Oncology (EANO) published the guideline for palliative care in adults with glioma. The Italian Society of Neurology (SIN), the Italian Society for Palliative Care (SICP), and the Italian Association for Neuro-Oncology (AINO) joined forces to update the guideline, and adapt it to the Italian context.

Aim: We involved patients, caregivers, and (herein presented) healthcare professionals (HPs) in the formulation of the guideline clinical questions.
