Pragmatic Comparative Effectiveness Trial of Evidence-based, On-demand, Digital Behavioral Treatments for Chronic Pain

Resumo breve

This study compared two available, evidence-based, at-home digital pain treatment programs. The goal is to see if one approach is better than the other, and whether certain patients respond to one more than the other. Study participants will be randomly assigned to receive one of two treatment programs: Skills-Based VR or painTRAINER. VR devices and painTRAINER manuals will be delivered to the participant's home with instructions for use via FedEx; participants will receive remote technical support. They will be followed for 12 weeks and complete Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) questionnaires to assess functional status, pain levels, and use of pain medications (including opioids). Participants will also be asked to provide consent/authorization to access medical records from their treating facility.
