研究组 & 干预措施
Education
Prior to the educational sessions, study participants will be given access to educational materials (e.g., handouts, videos) that provide an overview of information regarding cannabis products, effects, and pain. These materials will be developed with insight from the study team and the Community Advisory Board.
Educational content will include known side effects of cannabis (e.g., common effects like dizziness or sedation, rare side effects like hallucinations or vomiting) as well as specific risks associated with administration routes, such as respiratory harm from smoking or unregulated vaporized concentrate products, and the delayed onset of edible products. Sessions will help the participants appropriately select products for use.
干预措施: Educational Session (Behavioral)
