Future research is essential to enable evidence-based recommendations for the effective management of MSK pain conditions in this unique population.PMID:36722165 | DOI:10.1093/milmed/usac409

Findings from this pilot study support further research to examine similar interventions among distinct surgical populations and encourage further evaluation on the effects of CBE to enhance health and healthcare delivery.PMID:34791356 | DOI:10.1093/milmed/usab424
