Improving Functioning in Persons With Chronic Pain Post-SCI Through Virtual Classroom Education
2020년 5월 8일 업데이트: Kessler Foundation
Chronic pain (pain that is that is present for a long period of time) is very common among people with spinal cord injury (SCI).
The purpose of this study is to compare how well two different web-based education programs reduce the level to which chronic pain interferes with daily activities and well-being.
연구 개요
상세 설명
Chronic pain (pain that is present for a long period of time) is common among people with spinal cord injury (SCI). The pain is often severe and can affect daily activities. Unfortunately, common treatments such as medications provide incomplete relief from chronic pain. Thus, persons with SCI have to find alternate ways to live a happy, healthy, and productive life, even with some pain.
The purpose of this study is to compare how well two different web-based education programs reduce the level to which chronic pain interferes with daily activities and well-being.

실험적: Web-Based Education Program Type 1
The education program involves ten weeks of web-based classes (1.5 hours per class) given once per week with daily homework assignments of approximately 30 minutes per day.
|
The classes will discuss topics related to health and functioning of people with spinal cord injury.
During these classes, participants will be given information by the class instructor and will also participate in discussions and other learning activities with the rest of the group.
Participants will be assigned activities to complete at home for about 30 minutes per day that relate to the topics discussed in class.

주요 결과 측정
결과 측정 |
측정값 설명 |
기간 |
|---|---|---|
|
Change in level of pain interference with activities, measured with the Life Interference Subscale of the Multidimensional Pain Inventory (MPI-LIS)
기간: Average of scores obtained during baseline (Week 1 and Week 2) compared to scores obtained during Week 12 (the week in which the program is completed)
|
The extent to which pain interferes with daily activities will be measured with the Life Interference Subscale of the Multidimensional Pain Inventory (MPI-LIS).
The MPI-LIS is a self-report of extent of interference of pain with life activities and the enjoyment of life.
The subscale will be modified to remove two items related to work, as recommended based on a factor analysis of the subscale in persons with SCI.
