Barriers and facilitators from the patients’ perspective in the follow-up of carpal tunnel syndrome and subacromial impingement syndrome: A qualitative study

This study highlighted the complexity of managing chronic musculoskeletal pain and the need for a multidimensional approach. The identified barriers, along with facilitators, such as effective communication and empathy of professionals, emphasize the relevance of strengthening problem-solving capacity in primary care and fostering better coordination between care levels. These findings suggest that addressing these aspects may support more tailored follow-up and contribute to improving patients' experiences of care.
