19 March 2007: Participants needed for online IC survey.
PROCAIM, which stands for People-Reported Outcomes from Complementary, Alternative, and Integrative Medicine, was developed under a grant from the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine to enable large-scale research on (1) the effectiveness of the full range of mind/body medical interventions and other complementary and alternative therapies, and (2) the interactions among stress, pain, and responses to the various available treatments. It can collect a wide range of information directly from patients using standardized questionnaires, and can also serve as an information resource for patients and participants in health-enhancement activities. Participants answer a series of questionnaires at intervals for a period of one year.
