Predictors of Sustained Response to Functional Restoration in a Military Population.

This study supports the investment of treatment time in FR to yield sustained clinically meaningful improvement, as observed in over 40% of this study's military participants. Pretreatment predictors of sustained response included lower pain catastrophizing and absence of neuropathic pain. Further research is needed to determine if treatments that improve pain catastrophizing and neuropathic pain will result in sustained improvement in pain impact and functional performance following FR program participation.
