First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study is building a long-term registry of pain-related information from 300 people eligible for military healthcare. Participants complete surveys about their pain and overall well-being, and donate blood and saliva samples. The goal is to gather data that may help improve future pain care, not to test any new drug or treatment.
