Journal Article
Rodham, K., Boxell, E., McCabe, C., Cockburn, M., & Waller, E. (2012). Transitioning from a hospital rehabilitation programme to home: Exploring the experiences of people with complex regional pain syndrome. Psychology and Health, 27(10), 1150-1165. https://doi.org/10.1080/08870446.2011.647820

Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is difficult to diagnose and is characterised by burning pain in one or more limbs. Treatment is palliative not curative and focuses on improving function. This requires patients to make long-term changes to thei...

CRPS: Diagnosis, management and the nurse's role (2012)
Journal Article
Grieve, S., & McCabe, C. (2012). CRPS: Diagnosis, management and the nurse's role. Nurse Prescribing, 10(9), 439-445

Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) is a little known condition which may be rarely encountered by the nursing profession. This may lead to a delay in diagnosis and the initiation of important rehabilitation strategies. This article aims to raise... Read More about CRPS: Diagnosis, management and the nurse's role.

Journal Article
Cohen, H., McCabe, C., Harris, N., Hall, J., Lewis, J., & Blake, D. (2012). Clinical evidence of parietal cortex dysfunction and correlation with extent of allodynia in Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) Type 1. European Journal of Pain, 17(4), 527-538. https://doi.org/10.1002/j.1532-2149.2012.00213.x

- What's already known about this topic? There is increasing neuroimaging evidence of parietal lobe involvement in CRPS. Severe tactile allodynia and unusual symptoms such as body dysmorphia and finger agnosia have also been documented. - What does t...

Using graded motor imagery for complex regional pain syndrome in clinical practice: Failure to improve pain (2012)
Journal Article
Johnson, S., Hall, J., Barnet, S., Draper, M., Derbyshire, G., Haynes, L., …Goebel, A. (2012). Using graded motor imagery for complex regional pain syndrome in clinical practice: Failure to improve pain. European Journal of Pain, 16(4), 550-561. https://doi.org/10.1002/j.1532-2149.2011.00064.x

There is good evidence from studies conducted in a single-centre research setting for the efficacy of graded motor imagery (GMI) treatment, a complex physiotherapy intervention, to reduce pain in long-standing complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS). H... Read More about Using graded motor imagery for complex regional pain syndrome in clinical practice: Failure to improve pain.

Enhanced pain and autonomic responses to ambiguous visual stimuli in chronic Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) type I (2012)
Journal Article
Cohen, H., Hall, J., Harris, N., McCabe, C., Blake, D. R., & Jänig, W. (2012). Enhanced pain and autonomic responses to ambiguous visual stimuli in chronic Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) type I. European Journal of Pain, 16(2), 182-195. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ejpain.2011.06.016

Cortical reorganisation of sensory, motor and autonomic systems can lead to dysfunctional central integrative control. This may contribute to signs and symptoms of Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), including pain. It has been hypothesised that c...
