Digital Meditation for Postoperative Pain Control After Abdominal Surgery for Cancer
A Prospective, Double-Arm Pilot Study to Investigate the Safety, Feasibility and Acceptability of a Digital Mindfulness Intervention Following Open Abdominal Surgery for Cancer
Study Overview
Status
Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To investigate and define anticipated and unanticipated adverse events (AEs) related to a daily virtual mindfulness intervention delivered via short message service (SMS) text messaging and to test its safety in the postoperative period amongst patients with cancer.
II. To determine the feasibility and acceptability of a novel, brief mindfulness intervention delivered via SMS text messaging in the postoperative period amongst patients undergoing surgery for cancer.
III. To determine the feasibility and acceptability of an artificial intelligence platform to deliver and receive SMS text messages for the purpose of delivering pain assessment tools and collecting and storing pain-specific and patient reported outcomes.
OUTLINE: Patients are assigned to 1 of 2 arms. ARM I: Patients complete pain survey via text message daily for 10 days after surgery. Patients also complete telephone interview 2 weeks after surgery.
ARM II: Patients complete mindfulness intervention via text message daily for 10 days after surgery. Patients also complete telephone interview 2 weeks after surgery.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Incidence of adverse events
Time Frame: Up to 12 months
|
Adverse events (AEs) will be reported, and summarized using frequencies and percentages.
An AE will be considered unexpected if the nature, severity, or frequency of the event is not consistent with the risk information previously described for the study intervention.
Unexpected AEs will be summarized descriptively.
The most common adverse events reported within the mindfulness literature anxiety, depression, and cognitive anomalies.
The overall prevalence of meditation adverse events is 8%, which is similar to those reported for psychotherapy practice in general.
|
Up to 12 months
|
Feasibility of intervention and mode of delivery
Time Frame: Up to 12 months
|
Feasibility for each arm is defined as completion of at least 50% of the program.The proportion completing at least 50% of the program will be compared to a null proportion of 20% completing at least 50% of the program using a one-sample Z-test.
|
Up to 12 months
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Intervention and mode of delivery utilizing the Client Satisfaction Survey (CSQ-8)
Time Frame: Up to 12 months
|
Acceptability of intervention and mode of delivery will include quantitative and qualitative analyses. Quantitative analysis will include the Client Satisfaction Survey (CSQ-8). The CSQ-8 focuses on participant satisfaction with the intervention received, including:
|
Up to 12 months
|
Intervention and mode of delivery utilizing the System Usability Scale (SUS)
Time Frame: Up to 12 months
|
Acceptability of intervention and mode of delivery will include quantitative and qualitative analyses. Quantitative analysis will include the System Usability Scale (SUS) administered to all participants at study completion of the study to all participants. The SUS is a 10-item scale that examines the perceived usability of a technology and is commonly used in evaluating mobile apps. The SUS has demonstrated good reliability in other studies. |
