Understanding how pain varies and its effect on well-being in children and youth with cerebral palsy: A mixed methods study

Project Overview

This research will identify how pain changes over several weeks and will assess how these short-term pain trajectories impact self-reported physical and psychological well-being in children and youth with cerebral palsy. The proposed work aims to improve pain management and the clinical care for those with CP, while also expanding the evidence related to pain, well-being and disability in this population.
