Exploring lived experiences of chronic pain through photo-elicitation and social networking.
The purpose of this study was to understand how patients' use of photo-elicitation and online social networks (Facebook) enhances their understanding of what it means to live with pain. The investigators concluded that photo-elicitation is an innovative way to shed light on patients' lived experience with chronic pain. Despite some technical challenges, Facebook support groups utilizing photo-elicitation can provide a readily available platform that can facilitate interchange of patient experiences and might help patients communicate with their providers.
