ClinConnect Summary
The National Musculoskeletal Audit and Research Database is a clinical trial designed to improve the understanding and treatment of musculoskeletal diseases, which affect the muscles and bones in our bodies. This trial aims to develop and test a national system for collecting information about how these conditions are managed in community and primary care settings. By gathering data from patients and healthcare providers, the researchers hope to identify better ways to support individuals with musculoskeletal issues.
To participate in this trial, you need to be at least 18 years old and have access to a phone or email to complete a questionnaire. The trial is looking for patients who are receiving care for musculoskeletal problems in community settings, as well as healthcare providers in these services. Participants can expect to share their experiences and help researchers gather important information that could lead to improved care for everyone with similar conditions. It’s important to note that if you have serious health issues or have chosen not to share your data for research, you may not be eligible to participate.
