Our Whole Lives: Online Chronic Pain Management

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Chronic Pain

In brief

This project will work to increase knowledge about the utility of a website for management of chronic pain, Our Whole Lives (OWL). It will do so by examining barriers and facilitators to patient use. In order to gather this information, the investigators will conduct a Science Cafe with 30 individuals (including participants with chronic pain, who have family members with chronic pain or are a stakeholder in the chronic pain community) to gather feedback about how to tailor the OWL website to their needs and preferences and how to improve ease of use for this tool. The investigators will also pilot two cohorts with 40 patients with chronic pain (2 groups of 20 patients) with OWL, the patient-centered, mobile health chronic pain management resource, measuring pain impact (pain severity, pain interference, physical function) and pain associated outcomes (e.g., depression, anxiety, fatigue, sleep disturbance, ability to participate in social roles and activities, pain self-efficacy, health education impact and internalized stigma related to chronic pain).
