Have you or someone you know well been affected by musculoskeletal symptoms and disorders? Your input is needed on a review considering work-related interventions for people with musculoskeletal symptoms and disorders.
Skills / interests: Consumer (public, patient, carer) input
Would you be interested in helping us with this article focused on work-related interventions for people with musculoskeletal symptoms and disorders?
I am looking for a consumer who would be willing to peer review this Cochrane systematic review “Work-break schedules for preventing musculoskeletal symptoms and disorders in healthy workers.”
Cochrane considers a consumer to be a person with experience of the condition (in this case, musculoskeletal symptoms and disorders), either as a patient or as a carer/family member of a patient. From a consumer perspective, we are interested if the language of the review, especially the language used in the Plain Language Summary, is accessible and if it feels relevant for those experiencing musculoskeletal symptoms and disorders, such that it will be helpful to patients and carers with healthcare decision making.
While you are welcome to provide feedback on any aspect of the review, you can focus your attention on the summary sections. Our aim is for this to be a manageable task, that does not overburden consumer reviewers.
Thank you in advance for considering!
