DockTales for Chronic Pain

25. juni 2026 opdateret af: University of Maryland, Baltimore

Evaluating Feasibility and Acceptability of DockTales for Chronic Pain

This study will evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of DockTales, a mobile health tool designed for adults with chronic pain. DockTales supports pain and sleep tracking through brief diaries, body-map pain reporting, reflective journaling, visual summaries, and optional AI-supported interaction. The study will be conducted completely remotely. Participants will complete 2 weeks of DockTales use and 2 weeks of REDCap-based daily monitoring, with the order randomized. The main goal is to determine whether DockTales is usable, acceptable, engaging, and practical for adults with chronic pain compared with standard REDCap monitoring.

Detaljeret beskrivelse

This is a fully remote, randomized crossover pilot clinical trial designed to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of DockTales among adults with chronic pain. Chronic pain is defined as pain lasting for more than 3 months. A total of up to 60 participants will be enrolled.

Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to one of two study sequences. Participants assigned to Sequence 1 will complete 2 weeks of DockTales use followed by 2 weeks of REDCap-based daily monitoring. Participants assigned to Sequence 2 will complete 2 weeks of REDCap-based daily monitoring followed by 2 weeks of DockTales use. All participants will complete both study conditions.

Participants will complete questionnaires at baseline, after the first 2-week period, and after the second 2-week period. These assessments will evaluate feasibility, acceptability, usability, burden, engagement, technical issues, participant preference, and exploratory pain and sleep-related outcomes. Some participants may also complete an optional remote semi-structured interview after finishing both study conditions.

The primary outcomes are feasibility and acceptability. Feasibility will be assessed through recruitment, retention, adherence, completion of DockTales use, completion of REDCap monitoring, missing data, and technical issues. Acceptability will be assessed through satisfaction, engagement, perceived usefulness, ease of use, burden, willingness to use DockTales again, and preference between DockTales and REDCap monitoring.

Våben og indgreb

Deltagergruppe / Arm
Intervention / Behandling
Andet: DockTales first
This is a crossover-designed study with one arm of chronic pain participants. All participants will complete both active (DockTales) and control (REDCap) interventions in a randomized sequence. The first arm will complete 2 weeks of DockTales first, and 2 weeks of REDCap monitoring
Adfærdsmæssigt: DockTales

DockTales includes several core features:

  1. Brief diary entries
  2. Body-map pain reporting/feedback
  3. Reflective journaling
  4. Optional AI-supported interaction The AI-supported feature is not intended to provide medical advice, diagnosis, treatment recommendations, mental health care, or emergency support.

The focus of the DockTales intervention is to support self-monitoring, reflection, engagement, and user experience among adults with chronic pain.

Andet: REDCap monitoring
REDCap will be used to monitor daily symptoms and diaries from people with chronic pain.
Andet: REDCap first
This is a crossover-designed study. Participants in this arm will start with 2 weeks of REDCap monitoring, followed by 2 weeks of DockTales use

IPD-planbeskrivelse

The study team has not yet determined whether individual participant data will be shared. This pilot study will collect sensitive health-related data and DockTales free-text interaction data, which may inadvertently include identifiable information. Any future sharing would be limited to de-identified data, would exclude direct identifiers and raw free-text data unless appropriately redacted, and would occur only after IRB approval and in accordance with institutional policies.
