An open discussion takes place in regular digital working meetings and face to face meetings are held once a year as part of the German Association for Psychiatry, Psychotherapy and Psychosomatics (DGPPN) congress. The results are presented to the guideline committee at the consensus conferences.

Various preconditions and implementation requirements for long-term successful participation in guideline development were identified.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The Impuls working group can be used to specifically address insufficient participation in guideline processes.
