“…Participants emphasized that the psychological and social components of their recovery were vital parts of their journey. As confirmed in previous studies, the complexity and duration of emotional impacts varies in trauma cohorts, as do the physical consequences. In this particular group, these impacts were largely related to an inability to work and negative experiences with recovery processes and complex system procedures.…”

ObjectiveThe aim of the study was to understand the recovery phenomena and to explore participants' perspectives on the biopsychosocial facilitators and barriers affecting their recovery after a minor transport injury.MethodsA qualitative method was used involving semi‐structured interviews with 23 participants who sustained a minor transport injury. Interviews and analysis were guided by the biopsychosocial model (BPS) of health. The outcomes were themes capturing biopsychosocial barriers to, and personal experiences of, recovery using a previously defined framework.ResultsThe themes indicate that recovery is a multifaceted phenomenon affected by comorbidities such as chronic pain, depression and anxiety. A range of subsequent complexities such as the inability to self‐care and undertaking daily domestic duties, and incapacity to participate in recreational activities were major barriers to recovery. These barriers were found to be an on‐going source of frustration, dissatisfaction and a perceived cause of depressive symptomatology in many participants. Most participants reported mixed feelings of the care received. Other common issues raised included a lack of understanding of the assessment time, regular follow‐up, guidance and on‐going support.ConclusionThis study revealed that recovery after a minor transport‐related injury was a challenging, complex, demanding and a long‐term process for the individuals in this study. Findings from this limited cohort suggested that, for participants to return to their pre‐accident health status, a more coordinated approach to information and care delivery may be required.

“…Possible study limitations include both the number of overall participants (n = 10) and familial supports (n = 3). The number of participants, however, is consistent with similar qualitative studies [16‐18]. Identified themes also were recurrent among interviewees, suggesting an adequate exploration of the topic was achieved.…”

Individuals with SCI often require emotional, logistical, and/or physical assistance to complete bowel care. Exploration of neurogenic bowel care from the perspective of support providers identified concerns and challenges, sources of satisfaction, and important traits and characteristics of support providers. This information can facilitate the identification of effective support providers and the provision of enhanced training and support. Interventions of this nature can improve the experience for individuals with SCI and their supports.

“…Qualitative studies on coping among pain patients underscore the complexity of the strategies that the patients use. 57,88,89 One practical consequence of the idiosyncratic nature of coping is that psychologists who treat pain patients need to be sensitive to the ways in which individual patients construe their conditions and mobilize their coping resources to deal with them. The focus of psychologists on the idiosyncracies of beliefs and coping behaviors of patients stands in contrast to the focus of psychiatrists on placing patients into broad categories based on their DSM-5 diagnoses.…”

What does coping mean to the worker with pain-related disability? A qualitative study

Abstract: Researchers' and clinicians' view of coping may not always match the views held by individuals with chronic pain. This might impact on the effectiveness of interventions designed to modify coping behaviors, and alternative ways of intervening may be needed.
