🚨New research🚨 A #DukeCTSI+@DukeOrtho study suggests that different approaches to defining the severity of acute low back pain may help to identify factors contributing to the development of #ChronicPain.

Our Duke Kannapolis team continues excelling in community engagement for studies like BACk, a collaboration with #DukeCTSI and @DukeOrtho. This important pain research study is enrolling in both #Kannapolis and #Durham.

Last plenary of #USASP24: Dr. Erin Krebs @UMNews shares her perspectives on dilemas of pain & opioids from her combo lens of social and clinical training & experience - Key evidence & human stories during the “pendulum swings” on opioid prescribing over the past couple of decades

In this wonderful symposium, we also heard more about what “intentional & ethical” can look like: e.g., Connecting early in projects and compensating equitably to create great partnerships

[Flavia P Kapos, DDS MS PhD @KaposFP]

Pain researchers looking to engage more w/ people w/ lived experience of pain 🙋‍♀️, @DrJuanHC has some tips:
*Be trauma-informed
*Have professional boundaries (research ≠ clinical care/advice)
Other than that, “just” be intentional & ethical #USASP2024 @national_pain @US_ASP

We were happy to host Dr. Adam Goode and Dr. Flavia Kapos at Duke Kannapolis to present the BACk study to our #community! #LowBackPain #PainResearch

The PEG scale is a core data element in all #nihHEALinitiative-funded adult #ChronicPain research. Make your work more inclusive w/ the PEG in Spanish (PEG-S): https://t.co/1OFnQOhAlX. Our validation study is featured @TheJournal_Pain (=FREE during Nov/23) https://t.co/rga1X5Rn6Y

Veterans experienced similar/higher prevalence of pain than nonveterans (2002-2018). Pain prevalence among veterans increased over time, with higher rate of increase compared to nonveterans for all pain variables - a widening disproportionate pain burden. https://t.co/PRg60vkNKf
