This study reports the experience obtained by the National Institute of Health of Peru in the use of deliberative dialogues for the formulation of recommendations as one of the stages of the process of adaptation of evidence-based clinical practice guidelines using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluations (GRADE) system. Using a multidisciplinary approach, this study describes: 1. the public health problems addressed in the dialogues; 2. the role of the involved parties; 3. the parameters that were considered before and during the discussions; 4. the challenges for optimizing these dialogues and stimulating the interaction between scientific evidence and the added value provided by the involved parties through their experiences, perspectives, and knowledge for the development of recommendations in health.

In dialogue with responses to my article on the emergent practice of conjunctural methodologies, I pick up the question of collaboration and the shared challenges of developing, in a deliberative and reflexive manner, this demanding approach to problem specification, research design, and contextual theorizing. Although explicit engagement with conjunctural methodologies is a relatively recent phenomenon, its connections and resonances with geographical research practice run deeper. This means that there is much for geographers to give as well as to gain from the interdisciplinary conversation around conjunctural analysis.

Context: Healthcare stakeholders in Latin America, including payers, manufacturers, and patients, seek to expedite access to technologies.

Indeed, sub-optimal care transitions are associated with increased mortality, morbidity and adverse events.Improving communication through timely and accurate clinical information transfer has been identified as a key component of optimal care transitions.
