Single Arm Trial Identifying Barriers and Facilitators to Mindfulness Practice

1. Mai 2026 aktualisiert von: Erin Mistretta, University of Washington
This observational study will examine what emotional, physical, and environmental factors make it easier or harder for people with multiple sclerosis (MS) and chronic pain to practice mindfulness daily while participating in a group-based Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) program.

Detaillierte Beschreibung

Chronic pain affects about half of people with multiple sclerosis (PwMS), and standard drug treatments often provide limited relief. Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) is an 8-week program that combines mindfulness practices with cognitive and behavioral coping skills and has shown positive effects on pain severity, pain interference, and pain catastrophizing in PwMS. However, daily home practice is essential to achieving these benefits, and adherence is poor. People with chronic pain complete less than 40 out of every 100 recommended practice sessions. PwMS face unique barriers to practice including pain, fatigue, cognitive difficulties, and mood changes that can fluctuate within a single day. Understanding what drives or interferes with daily practice in this population is critical to improving MBCT outcomes.

This single-arm trial is the first aim of a research project designed to develop and optimize a smartphone-based just-in-time adaptive intervention (JITAI) to support mindfulness practice in PwMS during MBCT for chronic pain (1K23AT013270-01A1, Mistretta, PI). In this aim, 80 PwMS will participate in an 8-week group-based MBCT program delivered via telehealth. Ecological momentary assessment (EMA), a method of collecting real-time self-report data via smartphone, will be used to capture emotional, physical, and environmental factors as they naturally occur in daily life. Participants will complete twice-daily EMA surveys using an EMA smartphone app for 1 week before the program, during the 8-week program, and for 1 week after the program ends. Patient-reported outcome measures will be collected before and after the program.

The primary outcome is whether a participant practiced mindfulness between each EMA survey. Secondary outcomes include minutes practiced, type of practice (formal or informal), and self-rated quality of practice. Time-varying predictors assessed via EMA include positive and negative affect, stress, pain severity, pain interference, fatigue, sleep, location, social context, and time of day. Time-invariant predictors assessed at baseline include pain severity, pain interference, fatigue, pain catastrophizing, dispositional mindfulness, sleep, self-efficacy, depression, and cognitive functioning.

Multilevel modeling will be used to account for the nested data structure (assessments within days, within participants). A two-part modeling approach will assess both whether practice occurred on a given day and, on days when practice did occur, how much practice was completed. Three sets of models will examine same-day, longitudinal, and lagged relationships between predictors and practice outcomes. Predictors demonstrating at least a medium within-person effect on mindfulness practice will be considered as tailoring variables for the JITAI developed in the next phase of this project.

Intervention / Behandlung
Experimental: Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT)
Participants will attend eight, 2-hour group treatment MBCT sessions delivered using free video-conferencing technology. Groups will consist of 8-10 people who also have MS and chronic pain. Participants will be asked to practice skills learned in session between sessions. MBCT integrates mindfulness meditation practices within a CBT-oriented framework to address not only unhelpful pain cognitions and behaviors but also attentional control, decoupling of attention from emotion, mindful cognitions, and meditative behavior.

Zeitfenster
Daily Mindfulness Practice
Zeitfenster: Twice daily for approximately 10 weeks (1 week before, 8 weeks during, and 1 week after the MBCT program)
Whether a participant engaged in any formal (for example, sitting meditation) or informal (for example, mindfully engaging in a daily task) mindfulness practice since the last check-in, assessed via a single yes or now question delivered twice daily through the smartphone app. This will also be tracked passively by indicating whether participants accessed a guided meditation in the app itself.
Twice daily for approximately 10 weeks (1 week before, 8 weeks during, and 1 week after the MBCT program)

Beschreibung des IPD-Plans

Upon publication, researchers may request a de-identified dataset containing all variables used in the published article. Requestors will receive the published article, a variable list with labels, and the dataset as an SPSS (.sav) file. Although data files will be stripped of identifiers prior to sharing, there remains a small risk that individuals with unusual combinations of characteristics could potentially be re-identified through deduction. To minimize this risk, the investigators will review each dataset prior to sharing and remove or collapse any variables that could increase re-identification risk.

IPD-Sharing-Zeitrahmen

The data used for the analyses for any papers published will become available to interested researchers by request after that article is published. Those data will continue to be available for at least five years following the publication of the article.

IPD-Sharing-Zugriffskriterien

The investigators will make the data and associated documentation available to users only under a data-sharing agreement that provides for: (1) a commitment to using the data only for research purposes and not to identify any individual participant; (2) a commitment to securing the data using appropriate computer technology; and (3) a commitment to destroying or returning the data after analyses are completed.
