Whiplash compensation research may be helped by CONROD

Sufferers of neck injuries pursuing whiplash compensation in Australia may find the information provided by the CONROD team of great use; this is a group of researchers working to provide evidence-based information to anyone suffering from this injury. The medical aspects of the research are, of course, applicable in the UK and worldwide.

It unites teams from the University of Queensland's Herston School of Medicine and the NHMRC Centre of Clinical Research Excellence in Spinal Pain, Injury and Health. It is funded by the Motor Accident Insurance Commission (MAIC) Queensland and by the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) Australia, meaning it is able to operate on a factual basis without the need to please advertisers.

Its website is available at www.som.uq.edu.au, where neck injury sufferers or their personal injury solicitors can find useful information regarding this potentially debilitating condition. This information includes some medical background (including symptoms and treatments), news, and invitations to take part in medical trials and experiments - the last, of course, being of little help to UK sufferers, but what precedes it may be of use.

Its bibliography alone lists dozens of articles and abstracts of interest to a whiplash sufferer, taking in subjects from acupuncture to vestibular treatment. It also offers a discussion of the benefits of evidence-based medicine, which manages to explain the scientific method in a very understandable fashion, so that anyone interested in making a compensation claim can look into the science behind the site in plain English.
