A Mobile Intervention to Reduce Pain and Improve Health (MORPH)

29 december 2020 bijgewerkt door: Wake Forest University Health Sciences

A Mobile Intervention to Reduce Pain and Improve Health (MORPH) in Obese Older Adults

Chronic pain contributes to declining health and function in older adults; effects that are intensified by obesity and sedentary (sitting) behavior. The purpose of this study is to develop and test a novel, patient-centered intervention to reduce pain and improve physical function in older, obese adults. The study will utilize a combination of telephone based coaching and smartphone tools to deliver this novel intervention to decrease both body weight and sitting behavior. The long-term goals of this project are to test the efficacy of the intervention and to develop it as a tool for clinicians to provide outside-of-clinic patient-centered support for overweight/obese older adults with chronic pain.

Gedetailleerde beschrijving

Chronic pain has emerged as an urgent age-related health issue that significantly effects physical functioning and quality of life, with the unfavorable effects worsened by both obesity and sedentary behavior. The annual cost of pain in the United States is nearly 30% higher than the combined costs of cancer and diabetes. In 2016, the NIH called for a National Pain Strategy to: 1) expand non-pharmacological treatment options in older adults, who are particularly susceptible to the side effects of opioid and other pain medications; 2) develop accessible treatments that are tailored to individuals; and 3) increase the development of self-management programs for chronic pain. The purpose of this R-21 is to develop and test the feasibility and acceptability of a novel, patient-centered intervention to reduce chronic pain and improve physical functioning in older adults, leveraging the combination of telecoaching and individually-adaptive mHealth tools to decrease both body mass and sedentary behavior. A pilot randomized controlled trial will be conducted to provide initial evidence for effect sizes (pain and physical function) associated with the proposed intervention, and to estimate the sample size needed for a full scale randomized controlled trial design that compares the effects of the intervention versus usual care on pain ratings and physical function in overweight/obese older adults with chronic pain.

Wapens en interventies

Deelnemersgroep / Arm
Interventie / Behandeling
Experimenteel: Intervention
Participants receive the MORPH intervention.
Participants will engage in 12 weekly group coaching sessions discussion behavioral approaches to pain management, weight loss, and daily physical activity. The first three sessions (i.e., weeks 1 - 3) will occur in-person, and the remaining 9 will take place via telephone. All intervention participants will receive access to an activity monitor, smart scale, and smartphone app that aims to provide support for daily physical activity and weight loss.
Geen tussenkomst: Control
The wait list control participants receive usual care and are offered intervention materials on completion of the study.

Primaire uitkomstmaten

Uitkomstmaat
Maatregel Beschrijving
Tijdsspanne
Change in PROMIS Pain Intensity Scale
Tijdsspanne: Baseline to 12 weeks
The Pain Intensity Scale tasks participants with rating how much they hurt on a scale of 1 (had no pain) to 5 (very severe). Final scores are given as T-scores, with higher scores representing worse intensity. PROMIS scores are a t-score representing relationships with an estimated population average collected on a general US sample of adults as well as clinical samples. On this t distribution, 50 represents the population average with a standard deviation of 10. Thus, a score of 55 represents a score that is a half-standard deviation about the US national average, and a 40 represents a score that is 1 standard deviation below the national average. Scores were computed using the HealthMeasures.org scoring service as recommended for PROMIS measures.
Baseline to 12 weeks
Change in PROMIS Pain Interference Scale
Tijdsspanne: Baseline to 12 weeks
The Pain Interference Scale captures the impact of pain on valued areas of an individual's life (e.g., how much did pain interfere with your day to day activities) on a scale of 1 (not at all) to 5 (very much). Final scores are given as T-scores, with higher scores representing worse interference. PROMIS scores are a t-score representing relationships with an estimated population average collected on a general US sample of adults as well as clinical samples. On this t distribution, 50 represents the population average with a standard deviation of 10. Thus, a score of 55 represents a score that is a half-standard deviation about the US national average, and a 40 represents a score that is 1 standard deviation below the national average. Scores were computed using the HealthMeasures.org scoring service as recommended for PROMIS measures.
Baseline to 12 weeks
Change in Short Physical Performance Battery
Tijdsspanne: Baseline to 12 weeks
This test of lower-extremity function consists of 4-m walk at usual pace, a timed repeated chair stand, and 3 increasingly difficult standing balance tests. Each measure is assigned a categorical score ranging from 0 (inability to complete the test) to 4 (best performance) resulting in a final score of 0-12. Higher scores denotes better outcomes.
Baseline to 12 weeks

Maatregel Beschrijving
Tijdsspanne
Change in Weight
Tijdsspanne: Baseline to 12 weeks
Weight will be assessed weekly.
Baseline to 12 weeks
Activity Minutes
Tijdsspanne: Baseline and Week 12
Activity Minutes will be assessed using ActivPal activity monitors (PAL Technologies Ltd, Glasgow, UK) worn at the thigh for 7 consecutive days. We will assess (a) number of daily minutes spent in light-intensity physical activity as reported by the ActivPal (range: 0-1440, more minutes of light activity are favorable); (b) number of daily minutes spent in moderate-intensity physical activity as reported by the ActivPal (range: 0-1440, more minutes of moderate activity are favorable).
Baseline and Week 12
Sitting Time
Tijdsspanne: Week 12

Week 12
Sit to Stand Transitions
Tijdsspanne: Baseline and Week 13
Transitions will be assessed using ActivPal activity monitors (PAL Technologies Ltd, Glasgow, UK) worn at the thigh for 7 consecutive days. We will assess number of daily transitions from sitting to non-sitting behavior, captured via the ActivPal inclinometer (range: 0 - infinity; a higher number of transitions are favorable).
Baseline and Week 13
Participant Retention
Tijdsspanne: Baseline to 12 weeks
The extent to which participants were retained in the study (minimum retention goal of 80%). The number of participants that complete the study over the number that were enrolled.
Baseline to 12 weeks
Utilization of Study Application
Tijdsspanne: Baseline to 12 weeks
The extent to which participants utilize the study application, as defined by an average weekly use of 7 application accesses per week for the duration of the study period.
Baseline to 12 weeks
