Feasibility and Acceptability of Empowered Relief for American Indians With Pain During and After Cancer Treatment (ejames3)

16 september 2026 uppdaterad av: University of Oklahoma

This project will evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of Empowered Relief (ER) among American Indian adults who are currently receiving or have completed active cancer treatments at Stephenson Cancer Center (SCC). ER is a single-session, Zoom-based, 2-hour, skills-based pain management class delivered by certified instructors. Participants learn three core pain relief skills, develop a personalized plan, and receive access to a free binaural audio app for daily practice. ER has demonstrated moderate efficacy in individuals with chronic non-cancer pain, reducing pain intensity, pain interference, pain-related distress (pain catastrophizing), sleep disturbance, and anxiety at 3 and 6 months post-treatment. Because of its brief, didactic nature and Zoom delivery, ER can accommodate large class sizes and may address accessibility disparities among underserved cancer populations. While ER is being studied across various non-cancer populations and has been adopted as standard of care in leading healthcare institutions in the U.S. and abroad, it has not been tested in American Indians with cancer.

Deltagargrupp / Arm
Intervention / Behandling
Experimentell: Empowered Relief

Participants in this arm will complete a 2-hour Empowered Relief pain management course and get access to all the course materials. Participants will complete a series of follow-up surveys assessing the feasibility of the class for their pain intervention.

ER is a single-session, Zoom-based, 2-hour, skills-based pain management class delivered by certified instructors. Participants learn three core pain relief skills, develop a personalized plan, and receive access to a free binaural audio app for daily practice. ER has demonstrated moderate efficacy in individuals with chronic non-cancer pain, reducing pain intensity, pain interference, pain-related distress (pain catastrophizing), sleep disturbance, and anxiety at 3 and 6 months post-treatment.

Resultatmått
Åtgärdsbeskrivning
Tidsram
Feasibility of ER in American Indian populations
Tidsram: From participant accrual to the completion of their 3-mon follow up survey (approx. 4 months)

Indexed by:

  • ≥70% attendance rate amongst all eligible participants
  • An average treatment satisfaction rating of ≥ 8 on a 0-10 scale (with 0 being completely dissatisfied and 10 being completely satisfied)
  • Successful recruitment and completion of 70 participants within one year

Measures will be factored together to make an assessment on total feasibility.

From participant accrual to the completion of their 3-mon follow up survey (approx. 4 months)
Identify areas for cultural tailoring and improvement of ER
Tidsram: Assessed as part of the optional (n=30) Qualitative Post-class interview. (approx. 30 minutes)

We will use qualitative data from interviews to generate actionable recommendations to improve the cultural engagement, acceptability, and relevance of ER for American Indians with cancer.

Assessed as part of the optional (n=30) Qualitative Post-class interview. (approx. 30 minutes)
Pain Intensity
Tidsram: Data collected at the 1-, 2-, and 3-month follow up survey following the ER class

Pain intensity will be reported on a scale from 1-10, with 1 being "No Pain" and 10 being "Worst Pain Imaginable."

Data collected at the 1-, 2-, and 3-month follow up survey following the ER class
Pain Interference
Tidsram: Data collected at the 1-, 2-, and 3-month follow up survey following the ER class.

Pain interference will be gauged using a series of questions decerning the impact of the participants participants pain on daily activities. Participants will rate the interference on a scale from 1-5, with 1 being "Not at All" and 5 being "Very Much."

Data collected at the 1-, 2-, and 3-month follow up survey following the ER class.
Emotional Distress
Tidsram: Data collected at the 1-, 2-, and 3-month follow up survey following the ER class.

Emotional distress will be measured using a series of questionnaires asking participants about the frequency of certain emotional reactions. Participants will report frequency on a scale from 1-5, with 1 being "Never" and 5 being "Always."

Data collected at the 1-, 2-, and 3-month follow up survey following the ER class.
Sleep Disturbance
Tidsram: Data collected at the 1-, 2-, and 3-month follow up survey following the ER class.

Sleep Disturbance will be recorded using a series of questions rating the quality and frequency of sleep. Participants will report on quality and frequency on a scale from 1-5, with 1 being "Very Poor/Not at All" and 5 being "Very Good/Very Much."

Data collected at the 1-, 2-, and 3-month follow up survey following the ER class.
Perceived Quality of Life
Tidsram: Data collected at the 1-, 2-, and 3-month follow up survey following the ER class.

Perceived Quality of Life will be reported on a scale from 1-5, with 1 being "Poor" and 5 being "Excellent."

Data collected at the 1-, 2-, and 3-month follow up survey following the ER class.
