How Is the Probability of Reporting Various Levels of Pain 12 Months After Noncatastrophic Injuries Associated with the Level of Peritraumatic Distress?
Psychological factors have been shown to be consistent predictors of chronic pain in people with musculoskeletal injuries. However, few prognostic studies have considered multiple risk factors including peritraumatic distress. In addition, previous research has not considered that the associations between peritraumatic distress and pain levels can vary across pain outcomes. ⋯ Level II, therapeutic study.

However, even among shoulder specialists there is controversy regarding the best treatment strategy. ⋯ Level III, therapeutic study.
