Filter by:This study involves individuals who are currently participating in the Wounded Warrior Recovery Project and underwent aeromedical evacuation (AE) due to injury during deployment in Iraq or Afghanistan. The goal of the study is to understand how best to engage wounded warriors in research activities studying long-term health. Based on the results from this study, the investigators can plan a larger study with the goal to better understand the long-term health conditions of individuals who were injured in combat and improve patient care. As part of the study, participants will be asked to provide two sets of lab work over the course of a year. Each set of lab work will include one blood draw, one urine sample, and height, weight, and blood pressure measurements. In order to track long-term health, information from participants' lab work will be linked with study-related health data, as well as surveys they have completed with the Wounded Warrior Recovery Project (WWRP).
The purpose of this study is to implement a unique evidence-based intervention program to help military families deal with the critical issue of combat injury and its impact on current and future family health and functioning. The study is a randomized study. The study will compare the effects of the newly designed FOCUS-CI (Families OverComing Under Stress - Combat Injury) with the existing standard of care (SoC) at three military medical rehabilitation sites (Walter Reed Amry Medical Center, Brooke Army Medical Center and Madigan Army Medical Center) on key aspects of family health and functioning.
