An NIH working group has recommended large-scale research into pain management for active military and veterans. The report, from the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health, said the feasibility of conducting research into nondrug approaches for pain management in cooperation with the U.S. Department of Defense and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs should be assessed. Among its recommendations, the working group said the proposed research should look at the impact of pain on patient function and quality of life as primary outcome measures, with changes in the use of opioids and other drugs as a secondary outcome, and evaluate an integrated package of nondrug treatments, an integrative model of care, or a holistic approach to care rather than individual approaches. The research should also focus on patients in the early stages of chronic pain. "Chronic pain is a major public health problem that affects more than 100 million Americans, and research shows that it may disproportionately affect military personnel and veterans," said Lloyd Michener, MD, Duke University and chair of the working group. "New strategies for managing this widespread condition are urgently needed," he added.
