Abstract

A popular feature of the Multiple Sclerosis Experts Summit is interactive break-out sessions to discuss various aspects of multiple sclerosis (MS), including MS spasticity and general management of MS patients. The format encourages participation and active discussion, thus providing attendees with the opportunity to exchange their experiences of the day-to-day management of MS in clinical practice. Following feedback provided by each session leader, key messages are summarized and presented in a plenary session by the Summit chair. Topics covered in this year's country break-out sessions included: triggering factors for MS; decision-making in MS and the importance of patients' risk perception; assessment and management of MS spasticity.

Keywords: THC:CBD oromucosal spray; decision making; multiple sclerosis spasticity; multiple sclerosis triggers; risk perception.
