简要总结
The COVID-19 pandemic is presenting one of the greatest threats to youth mental health seen in generations. Pain is one of the most common symptoms of extreme stress in youth. In 2020, the investigators created an online "stepped-care" program called the Power over Pain Portal. Stepped care is a promising way to improve access to CP care. Stepped care tailors care based on a person's symptom severity. Like a ladder, a person must start with one type of care then "step up" or "step down" to more or less intense care depending on need. The investigators also summarized all online pain management programs for youth to find the best resources to embed into the Portal. The investigators will pilot-test the Portal with youth to ensure it can be implemented effectively and will be clinically beneficial. The investigators will recruit 100 youth with CP to use the Portal for 2 months and see how they interact with the features and if it helps to improve their pain and mental health. The investigators will include a mixture of youth who represent different ages, sexes, genders, sexual orientations, races, dwellings, and school/employment status.

结局指标
主要结局
Adoption (i.e.,rate of uptake of the Power over Pain Portal)
时间窗: 8 weeks
Characterized via the user-level analytics of interactions with each feature. The benchmark will be 75% of users completing 3/4 portal assessment and accessing ≥ portal intervention.
Portal Feasibility as assessed by the extent to which the Power over Pain Portal can be used as planned
时间窗: 8 weeks
Assessed via characterization of the severity of encountered issues on the Power over Pain portal
Acceptability
时间窗: 8 weeks
This will be assessed using the Acceptability e-Scale administered at T2 and assessed during the post-implementation qualitative interview. The minimum value is 1 and the maximum value is 5. Higher scores on the Acceptability e-Scale indicate a better outcome.
Appropriateness (i.e., perceived fit and compatibility of the Power over Pain Portal to the needs of users)
时间窗: 8 weeks
Assessed via the post-implementation qualitative interview.
Fidelity
时间窗: 8 weeks
Characterized by intervention use analytics.
