“Pill Pushers and CBD Oil”-A Thematic Analysis of Social Media Interactions About Pain After Traumatic Brachial Plexus Injury.
Abstract
Brachial plexus injury (BPI) patients use on-line groups for peer support, often seeking information from Facebook groups devoted to BPI. We hypothesized that a qualitative thematic analysis of posts from BPI Facebook groups would demonstrate the areas in which patients were seeking information regarding treatment of BPI and reveal potential sources of misinformation that patients may encounter.
