Ten years after the end of the Gulf War, questions continue to be
raised about the health of U.S. service personnel who fought in
that war. A primary concern is whether Gulf War veterans are
receiving effective treatments for their health problems. Section
105 of the Veterans Program Enhancement Act of 1998 mandates that
the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) ask the Institute of
Medicine (IOM) to convene a committee that would identify a method
for assessing treatment effectiveness and describe
already-validated treatments for Gulf War veterans' health
problems, including the problem of medically unexplained symptoms.
The specific charge to the committee is to (1) identify and
describe approaches for assessing treatment effectiveness; (2)
identify illnesses and conditions among veterans of the Gulf War,
using data obtained from the VA and the Department of Defense (DoD)
Gulf War Registries, as well as information in published articles;
and (3) for these identified conditions and illnesses, identify
validated models of treatment (to the extent that such treatments
exist), or identify new approaches, theories, or research on the
management of patients with these conditions if validated treatment
models are not available.
