Providing consumers and professionals with responsible, evidence-based information on the integration of alternative and conventional medicine. This newly updated web site, developed by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, provides a source of reliable health information on a broad range of topics including complementary and alternative medicine. Under a grant from the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine, UCLA has developed a web-based survey system called PROCAIM, which stands for Patient-Reported Outcomes from Complementary, Alternative, and Integrative Medicine. It is an information system and data collection tool linking patients, providers, and researchers. The current study is a longitudinal survey to study treatment utilization, effectiveness of alternative medicine, and the interactions among stress and coping, pain, and treatment outcomes. They are currently recruiting patients with fibromyalgia, IBS, interstitial cystitis, chronic pain, chronic fatigue, ADHD and other chronic and recurring conditions to sign up and participate in a year-long Internet-based survey. In addition to the questionnaires, the web site includes articles relevant to these conditions, and links to other informational web sites.
