Diverticular Disease Priority Setting Partnership (PSP): Prioritisation Survey

In a recent national survey, we asked patients, their families, and healthcare professionals to say what questions they would like to see answered by future diverticular disease research. These questions related to causes, diagnosis, treatment, management (including prevention), and support for people with diverticular disease in the UK. Thank you to all who submitted questions!
 
Guts UK and Bowel Research UK are supporting this project to help ensure that all voices are heard.

The submitted questions have been sorted, categorised and evidence-checked against published research and organised into 64 questions. Questions that have already been answered by research are not included here.

Now is your chance to choose the questions that are most important to you. This survey is open to people 16 years old and over with diverticular disease, as well as carers, families, healthcare professionals, charities, and anyone else affected by this condition.

This is your chance to have your say – so we want to hear from you!

The survey is now open and will close on Monday 13th January 2025. It will take approximately five minutes to complete and with your help, the findings will determine the direction of future diverticular disease research in the UK.
