Self-reported health problems and prioritized goals in community-dwelling individuals with spinal cord injury in Sweden.

CONCLUSION: The high proportion of reported "unbearable" problems point to the stronger need for systematic, comprehensive, life-long, multi-disciplinary follow-up for people with spinal cord injury. The high rate of goals related to improving strength and fitness across all participants independently of their characteristics highlight the important role of community organizations that offer such lifetime services.
