NextSteps, Managing Life After Trauma

With funding from the Center for Disease Control and U.S. Department of Defense, the JHSPH Injury Center’s faculty are developing and evaluating the efficacy of a computer-based self-management program, NextSteps, for reduc­ing secondary conditions and improving function following major lower limb trauma. The intervention will build on widely accepted self-management programs developed for persons with arthritis, as well as components of a face-to-face self-management program recently developed by the research team for civilians with longstanding limb loss.
