SpinePal Open Pilot
User-Centered Development of an App-Based Cognitive-Behavioral Intervention to Reduce Persistent Opioid Use and Opioid Related Problems Following Spine Surgery
SpinePal is a self-guided digital intervention developed for patients undergoing spine surgery. The goal of this study is to learn if SpinePal is acceptable to people undergoing spine surgery. The main questions the investigators aim to answer are:
- Is the SpinePal platform considered usable and acceptable by people undergoing spine surgery?
- Is the SpinePal intervention feasible among people undergoing spine surgery?
Participants will:
- Take a screening questionnaire
- Engage with SpinePal for about 2 weeks before surgery and 4 weeks after surgery
- Wear a smartwatch
- Complete questionnaires about 4 weeks after surgery
- Complete a brief virtual interview to share feedback with the study team

Подробное описание
SpinePal will be piloted in a sample of N = 10 patients who are scheduled to undergo lumbar or cervical spine surgery. A pre-surgery enrollment visit will occur via Zoom at least 2 weeks prior to the patient's surgery. Prior to the visit, the participant will complete screening and baseline measures. The research coordinator will then provide instructions for accessing SpinePal, including a unique user ID and password assigned to the participant. During the enrollment visit, participants will also be provided with instructions for completing physiological monitoring via a wrist-worn Garmin Vivosmart 5. The Garmin will be used to passively collect data on physiological arousal (i.e., heart rate variability), physical activity, and sleep throughout the open pilot. To enable collecting this Garmin data, the research coordinator will also assist participants with downloading and logging into a Labfront account on their smartphone.
Participants will be instructed to use SpinePal for 2-4 weeks leading up to surgery, and for at least 1 month after surgery. Participants will receive daily reminders via push notifications delivered to their smartphone. SpinePal will collect background app usage data to assess adherence and track usage of specific tools.
At 1-month postoperative, participants will receive a link to a REDCap survey including the System Usability Scale (SUS) and Client Satisfaction Questionnaire (CSQ-8), which will serve as the primary outcomes in combination with adherence based on app meta-data. Participants will also repeat surveys conducted preoperatively. The participant will then complete a 30-minute semi-structured exit interview with the research coordinator to gather additional feedback on the intervention framework, platform, content, and procedures.

Экспериментальный: SpinePal
Participants will have access to SpinePal from 2 weeks before surgery through 4 weeks after surgery.
Participants can use SpinePal as much or as little as they want.
|
SpinePal is a web-based app designed to support patients undergoing spine surgery.
The app includes tailored pain education, cognitive-behavioral skills, mindfulness and relaxation activities, and guided imagery exercises.
SpinePal was developed through an iterative refinement process with patients who previously underwent surgery and experienced persistent pain, impairment, and opioid use.

Usability
Временное ограничение: Enrollment to the end of treatment at 1 month post-surgery
|
Usability is measured by participant responses on the System Usability Scale (SUS).
The SUS score will range from 0 to 100, where higher scores indicate better usability.
|
Enrollment to the end of treatment at 1 month post-surgery

|
Acceptability
Временное ограничение: Enrollment to the end of treatment at 1 month post-surgery
|
Intervention acceptability is measured by participant responses on the Client Satisfaction Questionnaire-8 (CSQ-8).
|
Enrollment to the end of treatment at 1 month post-surgery

|
Feasibility
Временное ограничение: Enrollment to 1 month post-surgery
|
Feasibility will be assessed via app meta-data.
Engagement rates will be quantified based on the frequency and duration of interactions with the application during the clinical trial period.
