Abstract

Adolescents with chronic musculoskeletal pain face different impairments in daily life. After an inpatient pain rehabilitation program adolescents function better on several domains. The aim of this study is to explore the long-term work participation of adults who followed inpatient pain rehabilitation during adolescence because of chronic musculoskeletal pain and to identify potential facilitators and barriers regarding work in later life.
