In this episode, Tim talks to the acclaimed osteopath and PhD candidate, Alison Sim about her research on preventing chronic pain after injury, particularly in the context of compensable care.
Alison discusses the stressful and distressing nature of the compensation claim process, which can significantly impact recovery. Her research reveals an overlap in frustrations experienced by both claimants and clinicians, particularly regarding delays in care and lack of support. Alison's team developed a beneficial 5-session telehealth intervention based on co-design workshops with claimants. Interviews with experienced clinicians highlighted a common pattern of initial feelings of being underskilled, seeking further education, and ultimately developing a sense of mastery in their role. Alison suggests improvements to the compensation system, including early access to high-quality care and streamlining the claims process. Her research emphasises the importance of addressing psychosocial aspects of injury recovery in compensable care settings to foster better outcomes for individuals.
Keywords
chronic pain, compensable care, claims process, early interventions, pain self-management, social support, clinician experience, complexity, uncertainty
Takeaways
The claims process in compensable care can be distressing for both claimants and clinicians, and it is a significant predictor of poor outcomes.Early interventions that provide information about the claims process, pain self-management strategies, and social support can help improve outcomes for claimants.Experienced clinicians working in compensable care can find fulfillment and a sense of mastery in managing complexity and uncertainty.Improving access to high-quality care, enhancing communication skills, and providing support for both claimants and clinicians are essential for better outcomes in compensable care.Further research and evaluation are needed to assess the impact of interventions and systemic changes in compensable care.Sound Bites"I am interested in looking at early interventions to prevent the development of chronic pain following injury and particularly interested in injury in the setting of compensable care.""The distress of interacting with the processes required to engage with a claim is a big predictor of poor outcomes.""People didn't understand the claims process and felt overwhelmed by it."Chapters00:00 - Introduction and Background02:07 - PhD Research on Early Interventions in Compensable Care08:19 - The Distressing Nature of the Claims Process11:16 - Intervention: Providing Information, Self-Management Strategies, and Social Support29:18 - Improving Outcomes in Compensable CareUseful Links

Pain Podcast by Le Pub Scientifique with Dr Felicity Braithwaite
In this episode, Le Pub Scientifique dives into the fascinating world of pain research with Dr Felicity Braithwaite, a postdoctoral researcher at UniSA in Adelaide, Australia. Felicity's work focuses on placebo control research, particularly using innovative methods like sham dry needling techniques. More recently, she has delved into an Osteoarthritis (OA) trial, bringing a wealth of experience and insights to the discussion.
Dr Braithwaite's research in placebo control is notable for its exploration of unconventional techniques, such as sham dry needling. This method involves simulating the act of needling without actually penetrating the skin. The application of such techniques sheds light on the placebo effect and its impact on pain perception, offering a nuanced understanding of how psychological factors can influence pain experiences.
The podcast delves into Dr. Breathwaite's more recent work on an Osteoarthritis (OA) trial. A key focus is on her approach to co-design research trials with individuals who have a lived experience of pain. Co-design involves actively involving patients in the research process, from shaping the study design to interpreting results. Dr Braithwaite shares her experiences, discussing both the opportunities and challenges that arise when collaborating with those who intimately understand the impact of pain on their lives.
The conversation touches upon the hurdles faced in the professional field when embracing co-design methodologies. Similar to architects involving the public in their work, the pain treatment field can benefit significantly from incorporating the perspectives of those who directly experience pain. Dr Braithwaite reflects on the fear within the professional realm, highlighting the need for a shift in mindset towards recognising the value that patients bring to the research process.
The podcast explores the concept of prioritisation, negative framing, and the potential benefits of asking for the worst solution instead of the best. Dr Braithwaite explains how these approaches can open up a treasure trove of information, providing a more comprehensive understanding of pain experiences and improving the relevance and effectiveness of pain treatment strategies.
As the episode concludes, it becomes clear that Dr Braithwaite's work not only contributes to the scientific understanding of pain but also advocates for a paradigm shift in research methodologies. The co-design approach emerges as a powerful tool for enriching pain research, emphasising the importance of collaboration between researchers and those with lived experiences in shaping the future of pain treatment.
