摘要

Abstract

Despite the passage of time

a large number of veterans are still affected by injuries acquired during Iran-Iraq war. In addition to their primary injuries

the majority of veterans also experience difficulty with long-term

secondary effects. Studies have shown that the most common of these include a range of disabilities

pain

and dramatic decline in mental health and quality of life. Improving living conditions and providing rehabilitation services to veterans has always been a main priority of authorities. The goal of this study was to explain the methods and materials with which these priorities were explored.
