Overview
Brief Summary
The overall objective of this Early Adoption project is to gather evidence for how Managing My Pain Program (MMP), a novel digital pain management application can enable better care at home for chronic pain sufferers in the province of Ontario, Canada across 4 sites in urban, community, and rural settings
Detailed Description
Chronic pain imposes a large burden on individuals and society. A patient-centric digital chronic pain management application, Managing My Pain Program (MMP) that incorporates validated questionnaires can be used to enhance communication between providers and patients and promote self-management to evaluate the extent of patient engagement with the app when used in clinical settings. The main objectives for this project is to evaluate the engagement in patients using MMP, and to assess improvements in clinical outcomes directly relevant for pain management, as measured by clinically-validated tools.
