Effects of interdisciplinary pain rehabilitation programs on neuropathic and non-neuropathic chronic pain conditions – a registry-based cohort study from Swedish Quality Registry for Pain Rehabilitation (SQRP)

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2023
Background and aim Neuropathic pain arises as a direct consequence of a lesion or disease affecting the somatosensory system. Pharmacological treatments for neuropathic pain often fail despite following guidelines.
