Detaljeret beskrivelse
This study compares clinically-relevant therapeutic options in two high-volume hospitals (one public, one university) to address the core research question of whether non-pharmacologic approaches improve symptom management among diverse inpatients. Study investigators will assess the effectiveness of acupuncture and of pain counseling independently and in combination.
Participants will be randomized to two factors each with two levels, yielding four experimental conditions: (1) standard pharmacologic pain management, (2) pharmacologic pain management + acupuncture, (3) pharmacologic pain management + pain counseling, (4) pharmacologic pain management + acupuncture + pain counseling. Patient outcomes will be assessed using a mixed-methods approach, with validated scales for quantitative measures and qualitative interviews to elicit stakeholder perspectives (patients, caregivers, providers).
The study will be conducted as a pragmatic clinical trial at two hospitals to address these aims:
- Determine the effectiveness of adjunctive acupuncture and of pain counseling for improving pain management.
- Determine the extent that adjunctive acupuncture and pain counseling reduce use of opioid analgesics and side effects.
- Examine stakeholder perspectives on non-pharmacologic approaches to pain management.

Health-related quality of life assessed by the EuroQol EQ-5D-3L (EQ-5D-3L)
Tidsramme: Daily for up to four hospital days
|
The EuroQol EQ-5D-3L descriptive system comprises the following 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression.
Each dimension has 3 levels: no problems, some problems, extreme problems.
The respondent is asked to indicate his/her health state by ticking (or placing a cross) in the box against the most appropriate statement in each of the 5 dimensions.
The EuroQol visual analogue scale (EQ VAS) records the respondent's self-rated health on a vertical, visual analogue scale where the endpoints are labelled 'Best imaginable health state' and 'Worst imaginable health state'.
