Co-Adaptation of an Digital Pain Management Program for Canadian Veterans (ADOPTCanVets)

15 września 2026 zaktualizowane przez: University Health Network, Toronto

Co-Adaptation of a Digital Chronic Pain Self-Management Program for Canadian Veterans

The goal of this study is to gather feedback from Canadian Veterans living with chronic pain, and clinicians serving Canadian Veterans, on an existing digital psychology program for self-management of chronic pain delivered through the Manage My Pain app. This feedback will be used to adapt the program for the needs and experiences of Canadian Veterans.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • How acceptable, feasible, and engaging is the existing digital psychology program for Canadian Veterans living with chronic pain?
  • What changes are needed to make the program more relevant and appropriate for Canadian Veterans living with chronic pain?

Participants will:

  • Use the self-guided digital psychology program over a two-week period and complete questionnaires about the program's acceptability and feasibility. Veteran participants will also complete questionnaires about their pain and pain history.
  • Take part in a 30- to 45-minute virtual interview to provide feedback about the program and recommendations for its adaptation.

The study does not include a comparison group.

Szczegółowy opis

Chronic pain affects approximately 30% to 50% of Canadian Veterans, many of whom experience barriers to accessing interprofessional pain services, particularly when transitioning from military to civilian healthcare. Digital health interventions may help address gaps in care by providing accessible, evidence-based self-management support while Veterans await services or alongside their existing clinical care. However, these interventions must be adapted to reflect Veterans' needs and experiences, including military culture, values and language, pain- and mental health-related stigma, experiences of trauma, and challenges navigating the civilian healthcare system. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is an evidence-based psychological intervention that can improve pain-related functioning, pain acceptance, and quality of life among people living with chronic pain, including Veterans. The current study will support the co-adaptation of an existing self-guided digital ACT intervention delivered through the Manage My Pain mobile health platform. Canadian Veterans living with chronic pain and clinicians experienced in providing evidence-based pain psychology interventions to Veterans will use the existing program and provide feedback through questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. Their feedback will inform modifications to the program's content, language, format, and delivery to create Advancing Online Pain Psychology Tools for Canadian Veterans (ADOPT-CanVets). The adapted program will subsequently be ready for evaluation in a feasibility trial. Once evaluated, ADOPT-CanVets may provide a scalable approach to increasing Canadian Veterans' access to evidence-based psychological support for chronic pain.

The study population will include two groups recruited in Canada: adult Canadian Armed Forces Veterans living with chronic pain for at least 3 months and healthcare providers experienced in delivering evidence-based pain psychology interventions to Canadian Veterans. Veterans will be recruited through Canadian Veteran organizations, social media, and existing lists of individuals who have expressed interest in research. Clinicians will be recruited through professional networks using snowball sampling.
