What this trial studies

This is an observational, non-interventional study at a musculoskeletal and sports medicine outpatient clinic where adult patients presenting with pain complete the PainDETECT questionnaire. Pain regions and clinical diagnoses determined during routine care will be recorded alongside questionnaire scores. Data will be collected prospectively from medical records and linked to patient-reported outcomes without any change to standard treatment. Statistical analyses will explore associations between PainDETECT scores, pain localization, and clinical diagnoses.
