Opportunities to Participate in Research

Regional Anesthesia Military Battlefield Pain Outcomes Study (RAMBPOS) is a research study being conducted at the Philadelphia VA Medical Center. The purpose of this study is to learn about the pain soldiers experience after injury and to learn about the effectiveness of different pain treatments in helping them and others recover from these injuries. If you are an OEF or OIF veteran and were seriously injured on the battlefield, here is an opportunity to contribute to a study about the experiences of pain and recovery of injured troops. Read more about participating in the RAMBPOS study>>
