Documentation
In an ageing population, pain, frailty and disability frequently coexist across a wide range of musculoskeletal diagnoses, but their associations remain incompletely understood. The Investigating Musculoskeletal Health and Wellbeing (IMH&W) study aims to measure and characterise the development and progression of pain, frailty and disability, and to identify discrete subgroups and their associations. The survey will form a longitudinal context for nested research, permitting targeted recruitment of participants for qualitative, observational and interventional studies helping to understand recruitment bias in clinical studies and providing a source cohort for cohort randomised controlled trials.

Patient pathway description
Primary care was the predominant recruitment pathway, and recruitment has been through the community and secondary care health services. Participants might have been identified through screening of primary or secondary care patient lists, might have attended clinics, and might have be on waiting lists for treatment (e.g. outpatient, physiotherapy and inpatient).
