Abstract

This study discusses age distribution, outpatient clinic visits, and diagnoses of female veterans with trauma-related musculoskeletal conditions. From 1981 to 1988, data were collected of female veterans seen for treatment or examination of compensation awards. Their prevalent musculoskeletal disorders were of the back, feet, and knees. This study served as a means of preparation for the anticipated changing needs of these patients when ambulatory.
