This concept mapping study generated ideas on content to include in a medication self-management toolkit for adults with spinal cord injury/dysfunction (SCI/D). Adults with SCI/D, caregivers, and healthcare providers brainstormed statements, sorted the statements into conceptual piles, rated the statements on their importance and feasibility to include in the toolkit, and co-created visual maps to represent the data. The final map contained eight clusters of statements, with participants rating safety and lifestyle considerations as the most important and feasible cluster to include in the toolkit.

Learning Objectives:

Upon completion, participants will be able to describe the process for conducting a concept mapping study.
Upon completion, participants will be able to identify key components to include in a medication self-management toolkit for persons with spinal cord injury/dysfunction.
Upon completion, participants will be able to describe the most important and feasible content to include in the medication self-management toolkit for persons with spinal cord injury/dysfunction.
