简要总结
To maximize implementation potential of pain self-management in the VA, alternative delivery methods are needed to provide Veterans with education and support needed to self-manage their pain, without requiring additional resources from healthcare teams. A novel and promising approach is a peer coaching model, in which Veterans with chronic pain who are successfully managing their pain offer information, support, and mentorship to other Veterans with pain.
详细描述
The investigators' goal is to test the effectiveness of a peer coaching model among Veterans. The investigators are examining feasibility for implementation alongside effectiveness, to shorten the timeline to implementation.
Aim 1 (primary aim): To compare 6-month (primary endpoint) and 9-month (sustained effects) effects of peer-supported chronic pain self-management versus controls on overall pain (intensity and function).
Hypothesis 1: Veterans in the peer support arm will experience reduced overall pain compared to controls.
Aim 2 (secondary aim): To compare 6- and 9-month effects of peer-supported chronic pain self-management versus controls on self-efficacy, social support, pain coping, patient activation, health-related quality of life, and health service utilization.
Hypothesis 2: Veterans in the peer support arm will experience greater self-efficacy, social support, pain coping, patient activation, and health-related quality of life, and lower health service utilization, compared to controls.
