Conditions

Interventions
Behavioral: MBSR treatment
Registration Number
NCT04981925
Lead Sponsor
University of Michigan
Brief Summary

The overall objective of this study is to better understand how Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction (MBSR) is the most helpful in terms of management of chronic pain symptoms.

The studies hypothesis is that an Interventional Response Phenotyping study (light phenotyping) can identify individuals with different underlying mechanisms for their pain who thus respond differentially to evidence-based interventions for chronic pain disorders.

Detailed Description

Participants enrolled in this study will receive 8 weeks of MBSR therapy and complete surveys at various time points pre-treatment - post treatment.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
PROMIS physical function 6b8 weeks (after MSBR)

Physical Function 6b questionnaire will assess self-reported capability with 6 qualitatively scaled questions ranked on a 5-point scale, from "without any difficulty" to "unable to do" or "not at all" to "cannot do." The minimum raw summed score is 6 and the maximum score is 30. Lower scores suggest better outcomes.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in PROMIS pain intensity, anxiety, pain interferenceBaseline (pre-treatment), 8 and 12 weeks

Change from baseline in pain interference (QoL), measured by PROMIS Pain Interference 6a. Measure of the amount of interference pain causes in life; range 6-30; higher is worse

Change in Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS)Baseline (pre-treatment), 8 and 12 weeks

The PCS is a 13-item questionnaire that inquires about thoughts and feelings a patient experiences when in pain. Responses are recorded on a 5-point Likert scale ("not at all" to "all the time"). A total score is yielded ranging from 0-52. Higher score is associated with worse outcome.

Pain Catastrophizing Score; measured with Pain Catastrophizing Scale8 weeks (after MSBR)

The PCS is a 13-item questionnaire that inquires about thoughts and feelings a patient experiences when in pain. Responses are recorded on a 5-point Likert scale ("not at all" to "all the time"). A total score is yielded ranging from 0-52. Higher score is associated with worse outcome

Change in Chronic Pain Acceptance Questionnaire (CPAQ)-8Baseline, 8 weeks (after MSBR)

CPAQ-8 is an 8-item questionnaire with a score range 0-48 with higher scores indicating better status. Change score is computed by subtracting baseline CPAQ-8 score from score at time of reassessment. Improvement is indicated by change scores with positive values.
