An international collaboration committee created for the IASP, Consensus On Measuring Pain Prevalence in Populations (COMP3), is seeking feedback on a proposed brief question set for measuring chronic pain in population and epidemiological research. Current approaches vary widely and can produce substantially different prevalence estimates, limiting comparability across studies and settings. This work aims to develop a concise, practical tool aligned with existing definitions but better suited to population-level measurement and decision-making. We invite clinicians, researchers, others with an interest in pain epidemiology and people with lived experience to take part in a short consultation (5–10 minutes), open until 20th April 2026. |
