Survey About Pain After Spinal Cord Injury
Researchers at the Miami Project are conducting a web-based survey regarding
day-to-day experiences of people living with spinal cord injury (SCI) and
chronic pain. In most cases pain remains a major problem, despite our best
treatments. The purpose of this study is to learn from the perspectives of
people who are living with this pain. The information regarding the personal
experiences of living with SCI and chronic pain is needed to improve the
understanding and management of this difficult condition, and will benefit the
general SCI community including Veterans, their families, and caregivers.
Everyone with persistent pain after a spinal cord injury has a unique
experience. We would like to hear about yours!

Survey About Independence in Daily Living and Quality of Life After Spinal Cord
Injury
The enclosed link below contains a survey that seeks your opinion/perspectives
on which functions you (would) value most highly to improve your own
independence in daily living and quality of life. It does so by asking you to
complete a series of scenarios and questionnaires, ranking the relative
importance in restoring different sorts of function (arm movement/hand
grasping, walking, bladder and bowel control, sexual function) and/or treating
the very common problem of neuropathic (nerve-related) pain against each other.
This research forms part of a PhD study in which we hope to be able to compare
views of people with SCI in the United States with Australia, extending
previous work done in US.
